Book excerpt: This guide is written for biomedical innovators seeking to improve the lives of patients by translating innovative technologies into medical technologies. The contents are focused primarily on business principles that have been distilled from hundreds of projects as part of the Coulter Foundation's Translational Partners Program and Coulter Translational Reward Awards. To date, the Foundation has funded more than 600 projects, which in the first 11 years have raised close to $6 billion in funding.The course Concept to Clinic: Commercializing Innovation (C3i), offered by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), forms the basis of this Guide. This course has helped hundreds of university innovators, engineers, clinicians, and scientists learn how to commercialize the technologies they have developed in a very demanding market. The C3i program is based on the Coulter commercialization process, an approach to biomedical research translation developed and continuously refined by the Foundation in collaboration with its academic partners across the country.
