For adventuresome entrepreneurs, learn how to turn your tech idea into a business, on April 10, 2012 at 2:00 pm in the 3rd floor Community Meeting Room of the Berkeley Public Library, Central Branch, 2090 Kittredge Street. Using a case study approach, this presentation will cover how to position your new innovations to the right customers in the best target markets, how to create valuable feedback loops with your potential customers, how to gain visibility for your product through standards bodies, trade shows, and industry analysts, and how to close early agreements with customers or partners that position your company for a successful exit.
