CAP Tools USC ETTC
CAP Tools In the CAP, say you need to build a Technology Status Report. Clicking on the link, brings up more information about what is a Technology Status Report (TSR), including an example. Clicking on the details button reveals more information about the TSR. USC ETTC
SBIR (Private VC) • Since the inception of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program in 1982, through the end of fiscal year 1996, small high technology firms have submitted over 269,000 proposals resulting in more than 41,000 awards, worth approximately $6.5 billion. • (Good News) Roland Tibbets at NSF looked at fifty SBIR commercial projects generated $9 billion sales and had attracted over $900 million of private investment. These fifty projects alone generated revenues three times the entire NSF expenditures on SBIR from 1982-1995 and created 10,000 new jobs. Average ROI, 7 to 1 • (Bad News) Average time to market 7 years USC ETTC
Variety of Wealth Creation Models Federal Agencies, SBIR: Mission Based, Linear (push) Universities: Curiosity Based, emerging, (push) Chabol (large companies) hierarchy, products based (push) Venture: Niche markets, public trading (pull) Incubators and Science Parks created to bridge gap between development and commercialization Chart Source: Corporate Information Systems, Applegate USC ETTC
Linear Model Wealth Creation Sung • Typical Waterfall model • Six Stages • basic research, development research, product and process ideas, prototype, production, diffusion • Criticisms • Too much focus on the solution “push”, basic research not the only initiator stage, relationship between research and commercialization is too complex to be linear, Users are the key “pull” to the problems and markets USC ETTC
New Non-Linear Model • 2001 study of startup companies across: Software telecom (35%), Bio-med (19%), Computers (16%), and Semi-conductors (10.8%) • Most innovation at application stage (55%), development ( 22%), research (12%) production (9%) • Age: Linear startups ( 35-45), non linear (25-35) • Education: Linear (28%P,42%M,30%B), Non Linear (7.5%P, 22%M,67%B) • Experience: Linear (59% research, 35% commerce), Nonlinear (37% research, 29% commerce, 17% education) • Both groups agreed on success factors: business plan, leadership, technical skills, management skills, and location USC ETTC

Unsolicited Proposal • Assign a fall class a project of wealth creation • MBA students mine ETTC repository for a wealth creator • Perform a CAP1 and CAP2 primary market research • Present at end of term • Prize $ in start up capital USC ETTC
Commitments • Owners of technology agree to enter into good faith negotiations • MBA’s agree to post at info gathered in repository • VC’s agree to put up the prize money and share ownership USC ETTC
