Leslie-Ann Sturtz's Company Details

We help companies get over the hurdle of taking technology from research into product development by finding technology, partners, and funding to move the project forward, as well as help you build the business case by completing due diligence on both the technology and the market. Basically we remove obstacles to innovation but also help you evaluate projects worth pursuing to avoid costly mistakes. We live very comfortably in the "Valley of Death." You know, everyone talks about it—that expanse you need to cross to turn leading-edge research into real-world solutions. Because we've lived in that environment, we know how to bridge the gap to help you bring your technology to market faster and more successfully. It comes from knowing both sides of the equation —staying connected to leading edge technology while at the same time knowing what it takes to succeed in the real world. We come from technical backgrounds—living, eating and breathing technology innovation on a daily basis. We not only understand technology, we understand both emerging trends and the competitive spaces where technology can flourish, giving us a market savvy that prevents our Clients from chasing down rabbit holes. Perhaps, most importantly, we can zero in on the right targets in order to connect people, ideas, technology and funding to further innovation growth. We make the desert bloom. We know the "Valley of Death" is really the "Land of Opportunity" for those who know how to bridge the gap.
