This document provides an overview of an engineering capstone lecture on entering the workforce. The lecturer, David Mayes, introduces himself and his background. He then discusses common misperceptions engineers have about business, including underestimating the importance of marketing, focusing too much on technology over customers, and avoiding risk. Mayes emphasizes the need for competitive advantage and assesses the organization, environment, and strategies to achieve it. Various entrepreneurship concepts are covered, including characteristics of different entrepreneur types and evaluating market opportunities.

Today’s most beloved technology products and services balance design and engineering in a way that perfectly blends form and function. Businesses started by designers have created billions of dollars of value, are raising billions in capital, and VC firms increasingly see the importance of design. The third annual Design in Tech Report examines how design trends are revolutionizing the entrepreneurial and corporate ecosystems in tech. This report covers related M&A activity, new patterns in creativity × business, and the rise of computational design.
Increasingly, companies succeed or fail not on superior technology but on superior user experience design. This talk looks at the ROI of UX design with three examples of startups that leveraged design to disrupt their fields and beat the competition.
How to convince business and IT to value design?
One of the biggest outcomes of the technology consumerization trend is how it has driven the importance of design. There’s no “waiting out” this trend – an unstoppable wave of interest in design centricity is hitting the business world, shifting the focus in product and service development from features to experience. But why? What is the real value of design? Why is it worth the investment?

Design has become a game changer in Silicon Valley. This #DesignInTech Report highlights the rising importance of design in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. The report covers trends ranging from the record amounts of funding flowing into design-led startups to M&A activity with major tech corporations. Beyond designers and technologists, this report will appeal to a broad audience. For all of us who use a computer or mobile device, great design is changing how we live and work. This study helps explain why.
Ever asked why great engineers prefer working for certain companies? Or why certain companies are more admired than others? In this lecture I will share few ingredients of the strong engineering culture and why technologists prefer working for one company than for another.
The potential for design-driven growth is enormous in both product- and service-based sectors
The four themes of good design described below form the basis of the McKinsey Design Index (MDI), which rates companies by how strong they are at design and—for the first time—how that links up with the financial performance of each company

OOP2016 "The Business Behind Microservices: Organisational, Architectural and...Daniel Bryant
Presented at OOP2016 with Erich Eichinger
The technology changes required when implementing a microservice-based application are only one part of the equation – the business and organisation will often have to fundamentally change. In an ideal world, this shouldn’t be a problem, what with the rise of agile, lean and DevOps, but in reality this is not always the situation. In this talk we will share some stories of successful (and not so successful) strategies and tactics that we have used when introducing microservices into a variety of organisations over the past four years.
Join us for a whistle-stop tour of the business and people challenges that we have experienced first hand when implementing greenfield microservice projects and also breaking down monoliths. We’ll look at ‘divided companies’ vs ‘connected companies’, determine the actual impact of conway's law, briefly touch on the lean startup/enterprise mindset, dive into change management without the management double-speak, and look at the lightweight processes needed to ensure the technical success of a microservices implementation (e.g. DevOps, CD).
The main lessons we're keen to share are from observations on a couple of microservice transformation projects we have been involved in - some where teams have been cross-functional and aligned around strategic objectives, and some where they haven't. The latter proved much more challenging, as we saw single domain models being created and shared around the codebase, unclear service/context boundaries, and ultimately people tripping over each other.
The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry will be disrupted by technology in a significant way. BuildingSP believes that design automation will be the disruptor based on the history of disruption, the first principles that design automation affects, and similarities to other design automation examples.
Raywell Studio is an indipendent BIM and Engineering consulting Firm located in India. Our core business in to provide BIM solution for client from all sectors of AEC industry. In addition to this we also focus on providing a helping hand for the Engineering Design Consultants.

In 2012, Lehigh University launched a new master’s degree in technical entrepreneurship. The cross disciplinary approach opened the door to graduate school education in technical entrepreneurship for students from all academic backgrounds, creating a melting pot of experience, skills and aspirations in the classroom. This one-year, 30-credit professional master’s program (M.Eng.) in technical entrepreneurship helps student entrepreneurs create, refine, and commercialize intellectual property through the licensing or launching of a new business. Students in the program learn by experiencing the idea-to-venture process in an educational environment that’s hard-wired to support the development of novel, innovative, and commercially-viable technologies. Attendees will hear about the types of students from the first cohort, the perspective of the faculty members responsible for developing and implementing the curriculum, and lessons learned.
