Start Now: Your Commercialization Sprint Starts Here
This page is your guide to how we work, who we work with, and what happens next. Its designed so you can decide quickly if this is your lane — and if were the right team to take your innovation to market.
About You
We work with three primary audiences — and we understand the frustration and opportunity in each role:
Academic / Innovator
Your innovation is stuck between promising results and a market thats ready to buy. Youre buried in SBIR applications, grant cycles, and “interested” companies that dont transact.
Tech Transfer Office
Your pipeline is full of IP, but only a fraction makes it past licensing. You need faster deals and stronger backend economics.
Acquirer / PE
You know what you want to buy, but the market offers few assets that are clean, de-risked, and aligned to your deal thesis.
About Us
Strategic Spinouts is a commercialization sprint for university-origin technology. We secure the rights, build the commercial model, prove market demand, and package the asset for a high-confidence transaction. We are not an incubator or R&D shop — our work is execution-first, deal-focused, and built to meet acquirer criteria from day one.
How This Works
Our process is gated and systematic. At each stage, we define deliverables, timelines, and exit criteria — so you know exactly what will happen, when, and why.
Rights & IP Secured — exclusive option or field-of-use license, clean chain of title.
Commercial Model & Unit Economics — define what you sell, how you sell, and validate margins.
Regulatory & Quality Readiness — scaffold enough to pass diligence and run pilots.
Prove It — acquirer-aligned pilots or early sales to validate market demand.
Dataroom & Transaction — clean, complete, and ready for diligence.
Whats Next
Our onboarding sequence is built to confirm fit fast and start execution immediately.
Intro Call
We listen, we explore, we understand. The goal is to confirm fit quickly — we know our lane and will tell you if its not right.
Discovery Pack
You send a basic IP summary, existing data, and relevant contacts.
Feasibility Sprint
2–4 weeks to confirm market path, rights status, and potential acquirers.
Engagement Agreement
Lock scope, timeline, and outputs for the commercialization sprint.
What You Can Expect
Exclusive rights secured (option/license with field-of-use clarity).
Commercial model — define what you sell, how you sell it, and the economic model (e.g., lease + consumables + platform subscription) with validated unit economics.
Reg/quality readiness — regulatory plan, lite QMS, risk register, claim guardrails.
Acquirer-aligned POC results and reference customers.
Clean dataroom and transaction structure aligned to TTO backend economics.
Typical engagement: 12–18 months from rights secured to acquisition-ready. Timing varies by IP status, regulatory pathway, and POC complexity.
Why It Works
Targets the minimal requirements to transact.
Builds with acquirer criteria from day one.
Avoids VC dependency and keeps the exit attractive.
Compresses timelines without cutting corners on diligence.
