APPLICATIONS 1/2.
. Team information
i. Email address
ii. Project name
iii. Place where you want to attend the Program
iv. Inventors (identify all the people involved in the development
of the technology and / or scientific discovery)
v. Participants (identify all the team members that will actively
participate in the HiTech Program and, as so, will attend the
weekly sessions of the Program)
APPLICATIONS 2/2.
. Technology and / or scientific discoveries
i. Describe the technology and / or scientific discoveries, in
terms of what it does rather than the technical details on
how it works.
ii. Describe what is unique and / or innovative about these
discoveries.
iii. Describe the current status of development of the
discoveries and outline the necessary development required
for the next stage of commercialization.
iv. Describe a product concept that can be derived from the
proposed discoveries.
INTERVIEW.
. Each team applying to the program is required to attend an
interview.
. The aim of the interview is:
i. to assess the team motivation to participate in the Program,
ii. to make clear the team understands what entails the
participation in the Program and
iii. to answer any questions the team may have regarding the
Program.
SELECTION.
. Selection is carried out by an international panel of experts
that will assess the proposal based on three main criteria:
i. Uniqueness of the technology and / or science discoveries.
ii. Broadness of the discoveries (i.e., support a range of
product concepts)
iii. Strength of the market need fulfilled by the discoveries
. The team motivation to participate, perceived from the interview,
will also influence the selection process.
PROGRAM 1/4.
. The Program is built on a structured set of tools for the teams to:
i. look for linkages between the unique capabilities of the
technology and / or scientific discoveries and
customer/market needs, in order for different product
concepts to be generated,
ii. look for validation of the product concepts generated, in
order to sustain the choice of the product concept to move
forward,
iii. develop a well-grounded business case.
. This outcome of the team work will be presented in a final
session that is attended by business people, among them
investors.
PROGRAM 2/4.
The Algorithm
The set of tools provided in the Program allows for participants to
follow a structured path, that will lead them from the technology
to the business case, involving the following stages:
. Ideation: Which products can be generated from my technology?
. Development: How to evaluate the opportunity and which
product concept to select?
. Commercialization: How to develop a business case?
PROGRAM 2/3.
Unique concept
. Researchers are fully involved in the technology
commercialization process.
. Learning by doing: to embed the technology commercialization
and entrepreneurship skills it is essential for participants to be
engaged on real projects, leading to real business proposals.
. Team based: allowing for different skills (from business to
technology) and experiences to be brought to the project and
enhancing the learning experience.
PROGRAM 2/3.
Unique concept
. Real start-up experience: the Program emulates a real start-up
experience and because the team members have very different
backgrounds, the set of deliverables to be completed each week
provide common goals, language and framework for the team
action.
. Uncovering business opportunities: the approach supports
the teams in identifying business opportunities by matching
technological capabilities to unmet (or ill met) market needs.
FINAL SESSION.
. The final session will showcase the business cases developed
by the teams throughout the Program
. The audience will include business people, among them
investors.
. The final session will be held at Porto Business School on the 3rd
July 2018.

For teams with ground-breaking innovative ideas, sustained on
unique technologies, that need help in navigating the path to-
market (or to-license).
. Commercializing early stage technologies is a very difficult and long process.
. The path to-market (or to-license) involves both the validation of the technologies
and the assessment of market potential.
• Teams selected to participate, will be supported to advance the technologies to
the near-market stage, in the business development of their project and in
gathering funding.
• Teams will connect with mentors, domain experts, industry partners and investors
to streamline the technologies advancement and develop an investment ready
business plan.
