Use Cases
Support for the people building the ecosystem.
We partner with policymakers, development agencies, program leaders, universities, and researchers to design and strengthen the programs, ecosystems, and ventures that move innovation from research to market.
Entrepreneurship Program Design & KPI Development
Universities
Accelerators
Incubators
Funding Agencies
We help organizations design and build entrepreneurship and commercialization programs from the ground up—from program structure, curriculum development and sequencing to KPIs, success metrics, and milestone-based stage gates. By aligning program design directly with ACRL, we provide a clear framework for defining objectives, measuring progress, and building the infrastructure needed to achieve meaningful outcomes for both organizations and the ventures they support.
Landscape Assessments
Policy Makers
Economic Development Orgs
Funding Agencies
Universities
We assess entrepreneurship and commercialization ecosystems across regions, institutions, and venture portfolios, using ACRL as a common framework to map existing programs, identify gaps, and highlight areas of strength. These assessments provide a data-driven foundation for strategic decision-making and can inform tools that connect ventures with the programs, funding, and resources best aligned with their ACRL stage.
Venture Self-Assessment
Research Teams
Ventures
We help research teams and ventures conduct an ACRL self-assessment to understand where they truly stand across the dimensions of commercial readiness—and what they need to achieve next. The assessment provides a clear, evidence-based view of strengths and gaps while helping teams understand the requirements and resources associated with their next stage of development and funding.
