Introduction Describe the unmet need/problem Describe the opportunity/solution Describe the product or service to be commercialized Describe the project

Clinical Need Impact on human health/clinical utility Current standard of care Number of patients US and abroad Disease severity Cost of the disease

Market Impact How will proposed solution improve patient outcomes and reduce costs? Existing approaches and strengths/limitations Clinical criteria for success Other competing technologies

Milestones and Budget What are the milestones and timelines for commercialization? What is the estimated total cost to get to market? What are the milestones, timelines, and budgets for this project? What are the key business elements for success? What are the major risk factors?

Collaboration Describe the collaborative synergies Describe the management structure, communication plan and accountabilities of each of the collaborators Describe how funds will be allocated among collaborators

Competitive Advantage Describe the competitive advantage Describe the current I.P. status Disclosures Patent applications Issued patents Freedom to operate Describe the patent strategy going forward Describe the status and plans for licensing, sponsored research, conflict of interest, etc.?

Potential Barriers to Entry Describe any potential barriers to entry Economic, procedural, regulatory, and/or technical factors that may be restrictive or obstructive Examples include: Competitors’ patents, strong brand identity or customer loyalty Restricted access to distribution channels, collusion on pricing, restrictive trade practices Describe plans to reduce or eliminate impact of any potential barriers to entry

Economic Impact What follow-on funding will be required to commercialize this technology? What are the probable sources for that funding? (NIH, STTR/SBIR, Angel funding, venture capital, corporate partnerships, etc.) What is the plan to secure follow-on funding? Describe the potential for job creation as a result of project funding (first 2 years, 2-4 years, 5-7 years)

Commercialization What is the regulatory plan? What is the reimbursement plan? What are probable pathways for commercialization (i.e. manufacturing and distribution)?

Management Describe the background/experience of the management and scientific team members As appropriate, include a schematic of the organizational structure
