Starting a company to advance an invention conceived in the academic arena is an appealing endeavor for entrepreneurial inventors.  Not all technologies are suitable as a foundation of a startup company, and there are many challenges and pitfalls awaiting even the most entrepreneurial inventor. Dave Greenwald is an experienced life science entrepreneur, and will present his firsthand account of starting a company both as a company founder (Relay Technology Management), and in a technology transfer role at Johns Hopkins Technology Ventures.
