Consulting firms exist that help both academics and companies compete for funding One that I m familiar with: We help companies by: raising capital both through dilution-free government grant acquisition (eg SBIR, success rate >50%) and venture pitch-honing optimizing scientific plans. If your technology is scientifically proven, then you just have an engineering problem and you do not need us for this service. However, most companies have scientific risk in their development pathway and will benefit from having their scientific plans scrutinized by outsiders (us). interim executive management and advisory board membership. Our decades of industry experience and backgrounds as MDs, PhDs, and biomedical engineers allow us to integrate across these disciplines to help you achieve your goals.
