Technology Enterprise Group

i-Teams

A unique opportunity for students to build go-to-market strategies for Cambridge inventions.

i-Teams is a collaboration between: CUTEC Cambridge-MIT Institute University of Cambridge, Institute for Manufacturing (IfM), Technology Enterprise Group MIT Entrepreneurship Center

Are you interested in commercializing a new innovation? Would you enjoy working with leading-edge technologies and Cambridge’s leading scientists?

i-Teams allows entrepreneurial post-graduate students to work with real inventions to determine the best route for their commercialization, and present the results at CUTEC’s annual Tech Ventures Conference.

Building an i-Team

Each i-team will consist of up to 7 students from different disciplines and experience, and will work for a term with a nominated University research project. The i-team assesses the commercial prospects of scientific and engineering breakthroughs emerging from Cambridge University labs. The teams are guided by the labs' Principal Investigators, the Program Director, Amy Mokady who is an experienced local entrepreneur, and mentors from the local business community. Together we will identify suitable product markets, and define directions for future technology development, helping to drive the use of lab research in real-world applications.
