GATE’s commercialization readiness assessment tool enables our clients to determine the levels of readiness of technologies or products, willingness and ability to commercialize. This makes it possible for us to identify high-quality prospective clients and tailor assistance according to their needs. GATE applies its stringent state of the art Technology Evaluation Model (TEM). Every technology has to meet the following key criteria before GATE’s consideration for commercialization.
- Technologically Innovative- Patented or Patentable
- Economically Feasible- Production cost should be competitive
- Market Viability- Technology/product should have strong and sustainable marker potential
GATE will not consider commercializing any technology that doesn’t meet all these three important criteria.
