Why do we need such a process?

Our TT staff is junior

We work with researchers, having no (few) business practice (or

knowledge)

We need to convince stakeholders to join in unusual business

models, such as top management, external partners, policy makers,

internal research team.

We observed a lack of creativity in the envisaged business solutions

We struggle against a lack of information to ground business
