Synopsis
MIND INTO MATTER Since 1980, when the United States government first allowed universities and laboratories to reap commercial profits from federally-funded projects, top institutions have been licensing their research. Over the past decade, more and more institutions believe the big money is in commercializing the research themselves. To create sustainable technology transfer programs, universities must risk their own capital. In doing so, they find themselves having to set up virtual venture-capital funds - often with sorry results. Yet, technology transfer has had considerable success and continues to hold great promise for universities, scientists, and venture capitalists. What are the approaches and elements involved in bridging the gap between academic research and entrepreneurial commercial success? Mind into Matter explores the hiostory and issues of transferring ideas from university researchlabs to the marketplace, and the commercial and global benefits of this process. , In 1986 the trustees of the University of Chicago created an unusual organization. It was cumbrously titled The Argonne National Laboratory/ The University of Chicago Development Corporation. This was quickly shortened to the AR-CH Development Corporation and the organization soon became known as ARCH. 2006 marks the 20th anniversary of that initiative. During the course of those twenty years ARCH evolved from a small under-funded technology transfer function on the second floor of Walker Museum in the Hyde Park campus of the University of Chicago (sometimes described as "on exhibit" at the museum) to a unique seed and early stage venture capital partnership with offices throughout the United States. ARCH is governed by the same four people who began with it in 1986, it has founded or co- founded 115 new companies, and manages over one billion dollars. It has maintained an unwavering fidelity to its original objective. ARCH finds ground breaking discoveries in university, government, and corporate laboratories and transforms this science and technology into viable entrepreneurial start-up companies. ARCH then nurtures these companies to independence. Along this twenty year span there have been some successes, some failures, and many lessons learned. This book is an attempt to share those lessons.
