Abstract Content

Abstracts provide a brief, non‐confidential synopsis of your technology concept, the need or problem it addresses, its current stage of development, and your future commercialization goals. For each technology concept, applicants must complete a templated form that contains categorical and essay questions in the following areas:

  • Need and Affected population: Briefly describe and provide evidence for the need or problem your technology addresses and estimate the number of individuals who will be positively affected each year.
  • Technology Solution: Provide a non‐confidential, technical description of your device, including key features and functions, current stage of development, and regulatory and intellectual property status. If pre‐clinical or clinical testing has been completed, include that information within this section.
  • Competition and Market Hurdles: Assess the potential market and compare your device to existing standard(s) of care, including alternative or competing technologies.
  • Commercialization Goals and Challenges: Indicate your commercialization goals, and describe up to three challenges you anticipate facing.
