"The Mind the Gap initiative has helped the technology transfer community focus on emerging practices in university-affiliated gap funding. The Mind the Gap initiative is the primary, comprehensive source for POC and early stage funding information and resources that the community, including my operations, turns to for understanding and insight."David Allen, UniversityArizona
"Mind the Gap is the premier source for aggregated information regarding university-affiliated gap funding practices. It has been invaluable to us in our ongoing efforts to evaluate creative approaches for structuring seed and early-stage investment collaborations with universities and federal labs. Mind the Gap represents a valuable connection point to universities with leading edge commercialization programs, and as a result, a source of market-leading technology opportunities."John Banta, CEOillinoisVENTURES
“I participated in the Mind the Gap survey and obtained both ‘University-affiliated Gap Funding Reports’. As a Fund Manager designing and implementing an organically grown Technology Development Fund, these reports and Jacob’s expertise were invaluable in understanding metrics and what other institutions are accomplishing."Michael Rusnak, UniversityRochester
