Mind 2 Market


Final presentation scheduled on March 21, 2011

Initiative of WCED

Mind2Market is an open innovation platform where ideas meet their implementers. It brings about a transformation from the mind of an innovator to the mind of the market discoverer. It aims at establishing this marriage between innovative excellence and sheer business acumen making complimentary thinking a reality. Open to students, professionals, innovators and entrepreneurs, they can work together to change the face of an invention which is already at advanced product development stages. The platform asks you to ‘discover the application’, unravel the market, define the customer, think ‘out of the box’ and bring out your independent, unbiased view of what you think is the right business model that will truly bring this innovation to successful commercial exploitation. There are so many different routes to market. Selection of the optimum route requires diligent business research and planning and a cutting edge strategy. It is this thought process which separates an innovator from a market leader.
