Career Path: Making the Transition from Academia to a Business Entrepreneur

Description: Academic
research is a rich environment for the discovery of new ideas, many of which
can have commercial value. Many new startup companies have their origins from
discoveries made in academic institutions.  In this webinar we will look
at some of the entrepreneurial skills necessary to transform a discovery into a
product, and relate those skills to your own past activities.  You may be
surprised to discover the business skills you actually do possess, and will
also gain an appreciation for additional skills you may want to develop if you
want to pursue a career as an entrepreneur in the life sciences.
