“Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible.  And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see is as possible”

Innovation Management Partners works closely with those who are engaged in changing what is currently possible in our world.  We assist University PhD’s and offices of technology commercialization, government labs, and corporate R&D labs in bringing their concepts to those who can make them a reality in the target marketplace.

These sources often work in complex political environments with complicated value chains.  Innovation Management Partners’ advisors assist in establishing a program of practical, manageable processes that make movement of proprietary ideas as efficient as their creation. They know that technology that sits has no value – it cannot meet needs or create benefits.  Our viewpoint is that the movement of technology is as important to business success as is creation of technology.  Research is only truly successful when it is demonstrated that it has become usable in a business context.

Innovation Management Partners uses pathways that go beyond the patent/licensing model commonly used, and delivers focused attention to finding interested buyers in the marketplace.  As the technology broker, we will provide services to assist in technology development, technology marketing, and technology value management.  We help you to learn the value chains of potential partners, then design technologies and transfer processes to match up to their realities.  Our marketing programs build broad awareness of your capabilities to serve particular segments of industry, creating a sense of urgency and preference for you as a source of commercially viable new technologies.
