Technology assessment

Owners of a technology must evaluate its commercial potential in order to maximize its value. BBC provides organizations and individuals with an independent assessment of the commercial potential of their technology for a variety of purposes, including:

• Decision on filing for intellectual property protection
• Valuation prior to sale or out-license
• Identifying new or expanded applications
• Due diligence for investment or in-licensing
  

Examples:

• Analysis of the market opportunity for a screening test for the early detection of lung cancer
• Therapeutic applications for a biopharmaceutical compound to induce apoptosis
• Comprehensive evaluation of medical applications for shape-memory foam
