Abstract

Recognizing the unique needs of the technology startup, Duening focuses on intellectual property development, funding, and marketing/selling more than other texts in this market. Extensive use of technology examples, case studies, and assignments keeps the book relevant and motivating for engineering students.

  • Rich in case studies, examples, and in-chapter elements that focus on the challenges of launching and operating a technology venture
  • In-depth examination of intellectual property development, valuation, deal structuring, and equity preservation, issues of most relevance to technology start-ups
  • Extensive discussion of technology management and continuous innovation as a competitive advantage
  • Addresses the issue of leading, managing, motivating, and compensating technical workers
  • More time on the fundamentals of marketing and selling, as these are elements of entrepreneurship commonly most neglected by engineers and scientists
