Emerging Innovations Consulting

Hello LinkedIn! We’re Emerging Innovations Consulting and we exist to empower academic entrepreneurs and early-stage startups. What does that mean? Well, we help scientists start and/or build companies based on their research. Maybe you only have an idea, but think it could the next medicine or medical device. Let’s talk about how to build a company around that idea. Or maybe you already have a company but don't know what you need to do to really get it off the ground. Let’s talk about how to build a commercialization plan, raise some money, and get things going. Regardless of where you are on your entrepreneurial journey, we’ll meet you there. We have years of experience supporting researchers in spinning out and building their startup companies. We’ve also spent time in the lab doing our own science. We know how to connect these two worlds. We can be your guide on this winding and uncertain path, helping you understand what you don’t know and giving you the resources to learn it. We care about mentoring, coaching, and just generally helping people. Let's find out if there are ways that we can help you! If you want to learn more about who we are and what we do, give us a follow and check out our website: https://lnkd.in/eziuiNdw Let’s build something big together!

We want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season! We'll be back in the new year to continue building big things!

A big congratulations to this year's Science Inc. Accelerator cohort!

Here’s a quick recap of last week’s Nucleate New York x Princeton Innovation Center BioLabs event! A big thanks to Louis Hoffenberg (Recast), Scott Alpizar (Emerging Innovations Consulting) and Aliya Sanders (Gunderson Dettmer) for leading a great conversation on how founders evolve their technology through accelerator programs, the value of mentorship and community, and the delicate balance between protecting IP and fostering open collaboration. They also highlighted the importance of engaging legal counsel early, leveraging licensing and commercial agreements, and aligning for future mergers, acquisitions, and strategic partnerships. We explored what investors seek beyond novelty—robust financial modeling, access to academic resources—and how these early moves set the stage for lasting market success. Here’s to building on these insights and fueling even more innovative dialogue in the coming year. Stay tuned!

The process of moving scientific technologies out of academic labs is critical to fostering a strong innovation ecosystem. Today we want to celebrate the anniversary of the Bayh-Dole Act that set the ground work for what technology transfer is today. This legislation provided universities ownership of their federally-funded research and a more flexible pathway to commercialization. We also want to celebrate the technology transfer professionals who put in the effort to make this process successful. Without you, it would be much more difficult for academic spinouts to exist - and for us to do the work that we do! Thank you for giving academic researchers the opportunity to take their work outside of the lab and make an impact. If you're in technology transfer and looking for additional resources to support your researchers and spinout companies, that's our specialty! Let's talk - we'd love to help!

Interested in learning how to take your research out into the world? Stop by Princeton Innovation Center BioLabs tonight for this event hosted by Nucleate New York! Our very own Scott Alpizar will be sharing his insights alongside Louis Hoffenberg and Aliya Sanders!
