Query areas could include: \n\nWhat should startups look for in their lead investors?\nWhat are ‘standard’ investment terms these days for startups? Does this vary by Seed vs Series A?\nWhat are the common misconceptions you find that faculty members have about being a company founder?\nWhat does a well-known PI typically receive for founder’s equity?\nHow do SPACs work and what could they mean for university startups?\nWhat do you find are common misconceptions TTOs have about venture capital?\nWhat sources of funding most commonly lead to a startup having a later successful venture capital financing round?\n\nMarc and Bill will also take questions from the audience the day of the webinar\, but sending your questions in advance will put them at the top of the queue. \nThis webinar is free to all of OUP’s academic institution partners (Cornell Faculty and students). \n  \nPanelists: \nBill Harrington\, Managing Partner\, Life Sciences\, OUP \nMarc Singer\, Managing Partner\, Technology\, OUP \n  \nRegistration Link:  https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Zxkj7mUdTu2izYAoPwT5qw \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.  URL:https://ctl.cornell.edu/event/oup-webinar-ask-a-vc-webinar CATEGORIES:Partner Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20211102T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20211102T130000 DTSTAMP:20260404T012456 CREATED:20211004T234933Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211004T234933Z UID:10000238-1635854400-1635858000@ctl.cornell.edu SUMMARY:UTS Series #2 - Pitching 101: How to Present Your Startups and Technology Innovation to Potential Funders DESCRIPTION:For CTL second University Technology Startup (UTS) series\, Margalit Haber and Ajay Rayasam at Osage University Partners (OUP) will focus the session on how an entrepreneur\, or a faculty-entrepreneur can develop and deliver a pitch to gain interest and commitment from potential investors. \nPitching an early-stage science- and technology-based startup to potential funders can be intimidating. Learning how to tailor your presentation and understanding what motivates funders to say yes\, or at least not give you an outright no\, are important aspects of preparing for your initial pitch.

This effort has focused on a variety of goals\, including the development of novel soft materials that \n\ncan match the natural properties of biological tissues\,\nare responsive to external multi-physical stimuli and\ncan function in structural and load bearing applications.\n\n  \nApplications in tissue engineering\, bioengineering\, soft robotics\, flexible electronics\, energetic materials and structural design\, all pose requirements towards optimizing combinations of material properties\, such as strength\, toughness\, fatigue resistance\, lubricity\, and wear resistance. For example recent advances have led to the development of double network hydrogels\, soft composites\, as well as hydrogels and elastomers with dynamic bonds which all are designed towards improved material properties. Bioinspiration and multiscale understanding of the underlying mechanisms that govern the material behavior prove to be extremely important for informing the design and generation of soft materials\, devices\, and implants. At the same time\, advancements in fabrication techniques such as 3D printing are expanding the application space of soft materials. The acceleration of soft material design needs to be supported by the concurrent evolution of fabrication and characterization techniques so that existing shortcomings of soft materials are overcome. \n  \nThe goal of this symposium is to bring together experts in the characterization\, design\, fabrication\, and application of high performance soft material to discuss recent developments in the field and priorities for interdisciplinary approaches to moving the field forward. \n  \nRegister:\nhttps://www.ccmr.cornell.edu/industry/ccmr-symposium/registration/ccmr-symposium-registration-form/ URL:https://ctl.cornell.edu/event/2021-ccmr-symposium-high-performance-soft-materials-from-bioinspiration-to-synthesis-and-fabrication CATEGORIES:Partner Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210520T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210520T133000 DTSTAMP:20260404T012456 CREATED:20210417T014946Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210417T014946Z UID:10000232-1621513800-1621517400@ctl.cornell.edu SUMMARY:University Technology Startup Series 1: Founder’s Equity & CEO Assessment DESCRIPTION:Kirsten Leute and Margalit Haber at Osage University Partners (OUP) will provide an in-depth look at venture capital perspectives on the economics of university startup formation. \n  \nIn the first part of the session\, they will take the participants step-by-step through the life of a company\, illustrating the uses of equity and potential outcomes for founders. \n  \nIn the second part of the session\, they will take the participants through the CEO search process\, how VCs evaluate potential entrepreneurs\, and some observations about drivers for long-term success as an entrepreneur.
