CLASS SUMMARY
Thinking carefully about economics and business strategy can make the difference between having great technology versus having a great company. While MBAs can be famously dim-witted, scientists and engineers can be famously stubborn and insensitive to market forces.
We’ll discuss the most common commercialization traps that befall otherwise “way smart” inventors.
Speaker: Ajay Agrawal
Ajay is the Peter Munk Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Rotman School of Management.
