💡 Starting a company involves more than just having a great idea; it’s about aligning science readiness, business planning, and funding
📖 There’s lots to learn moving from academia to a start up, and investing in leadership skills is critical to building a productive team
🚀 Oxford University Innovation supported the HydRegen team right from the start, from when to file a patent, to sign posting for critical funding opportunities, through to guiding the spinout process
😁 Spinout life is exciting but changeable, investing in a strong and motivated team ensures enthusiasm stays high!
