How to Develop a Profitable Technology

Description

The $100,000 Gap: Is Your R&D Geared for Specs or Profit? A 4-hour strategic intensive for Colorado’s Photonics Leaders. Many photonics companies develop technically strong products that struggle to generate meaningful revenue. The problem usually isn’t with the science, but that the R&D frameworks are oriented more towards technical performance and less towards commercial success. On May 19th (Tuesday), David Giltner of TurningScience will be holding a half-day interactive workshop to outline the technology commercialization framework he’s developed through 25 years at the intersection of science and business. Participants will learn systems for product development that go beyond technical performance to ensure products deliver a solid return on investment. What You’ll Master: ✅ The 5 critical elements of a product that converts technical success into commercial success. ✅ Why solid system engineering principles and a product development process align development teams with $100k+ business outcomes. ✅ How a systematic approach to problem sovling can turn a technical issue into a customer opportunity. Who should attend: VPs, Product Managers, and Lead Development Engineers If you are a company leader who wants to shorten your path to revenue, or if you have a lead engineer who is brilliant at photonics but needs to think more like a product owner, this is an investment that will pay off big.
