R&D Decision Roadmap
Named deliverable R&D Decision Roadmap
We start with the decision in front of you and the evidence already available. I review the technical state, intended product, scale-up constraints, commercial assumptions, and relevant IP questions. The roadmap shows what is known, what is still an assumption, and which experiment or external check would change the decision. Patent and legal questions are flagged for counsel rather than answered as legal advice.
What you get
- A clear statement of the decision the program needs to make
- An evidence map separating demonstrated results from assumptions
- The technical and commercial risks most likely to change the answer
- Alternative paths with their costs, dependencies, and tradeoffs
- Milestone gates tied to funding or continuation decisions
- IP questions and landscape gaps to take to patent counsel
- A roadmap for the next experiments, partner conversations, or diligence work
- A continue, redirect, partner, license, pause, or stop decision memo
Who it's for
Deep-tech founders and R&D leaders deciding whether to continue, redirect, partner, license, scale, or stop
