Manage episode 334830742 series 2417569
CU Aerospace President David Carroll kicks off a new season of the Cold Star Project as we discuss the challenges of productizing a new space tech invention. After the struggle of winning an SBIR, then developing the technology, what are the hurdles to commercializing the result?
Host Jason Kanigan asks Dr. Carroll:
- What problem were you aiming to solve when you applied for the specific SBIR we're discussing today?
- Who was the customer or target user? How did you discover that a focus on having a customer was critical and a good starting point for tech development?
- What challenges did you have in getting the award, and then running the program? What conditions or advantages does having a partner eg. U of Illinois bring to the table?
- What have you seen in terms of grant awards that has made you scratch your head?
