How SPROWTT Works!
Sprowtt Launch Pad offers an innovative and unique opportunity for entrepreneurs to explore and commercialize potentially disruptive technologies originally developed by the nation’s most prestigious Colleges and Universities gas well as government laboratories. Sprowtt Launch Pad brings together some of the world’s brightest and most motivated entrepreneurs to evaluate and commercialize patented technologies from leading government organizations such as NASA, the Department of Defense, the NIH, and the EPA.
Launch Pad is powered by the groundbreaking Sprowtt platform, which reduces risk and increases the probability of market success by charging no up-front fees, facilitating early-stage company capitalization, and constructing a path to full commercialization that meets all regulatory requirements.
This opportunity is available to both existing companies and start-ups formed to commercialize the federal government’s best technologies. It addresses many challenges faced by start-up companies, such as raising capital and securing intellectual property rights.
Selected teams will write business plans that lay the foundation for new companies and products in the marketplace. Teams will compete in Sprowtt’s Collegiate Entrepreneurship Tech Transfer Competitions (CETTC), a series of multi-phase competitions designed to validate business plans and reward the best of them. The inaugural CETTC is scheduled to take place in late in coming months , and we expect the competition to be fierce. Teams will be judged based on the feasibility of commercialization of the selected technology and the overall implementation plan. Winners will be awarded the opportunity to utilize the Sprowtt platform at no additional cost to pursue the required capital to launch their company.
The Sprowtt Launch Pad Challenge will ripple throughout the economy, supporting critical industries, creating new businesses and jobs, and attracting entrepreneurs, students, veterans, and active military to science and engineering. Sprowtt Inc.'s investment in the Launch Pad is intended to support future technologies and discoveries, delivering social and economic impacts that benefit the nation today and spur economic growth.
Why are we doing this?
Because commercializing Colleges and Universities spin out and spin technologies as well as U.S. government’s research through Technology transfer it fuels the nation’s relentless need to innovate, provides the U.S. with a competitive advantage, stimulates the economy, and creates jobs and economic prosperity.
At Sprowtt, that’s what we’re all about.
Sprowtt Launch Pad collaborates with colleges, universities, and selected outreach teams to explore market potential.
