What is I-Corps?

The National Science Foundation defines I-Corps (Innovation Corps) as an immersive program designed to teach entrepreneurial skills to university researchers in order to prepare them for commercialization of their technologies. The program aims to help researchers see their technologies through an entrepreneurial lens and to shorten the time from scientific ideas created in the laboratory to actual implementation.

At LVG, that means that our team helps researchers and creators go through a discovery process to learn whether or not there is a commercial market for their product or technology, make adjustments to fit the market and optimize their technology and move from the lab to the real world when a market is identified.
