Project Summary/Abstract Despite the investment of billions of dollars in biomedical research each year from NIH, barriers remain in effectively translating basic science discoveries from academia to commercial products that benefit patients. These barriers include a funding gap between basic research and commercial developments, a lack of knowledge by innovators on how to bring products to market, and a lack of sufficient commercialization resources required for early-stage developments. To address this need, this project will develop a five state biomedical technology transfer accelerator hub serving the Central Region IDeA states (Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, North Dakota and South Dakota). This accelerator hub will be called the Sustainable Heartland Accelerator Regional Partnership (SHARP) Hub. Led by BBC Entrepreneurial Training and Consulting LLC (BBCetc) and the University of Kansas (KU), SHARP Hub will implement a three-pronged approach to include a mentoring program, an entrepreneurial training curriculum, and networking and outreach tools. These resources will be available to universities or regional consortia to develop technology commercialization capacity in the health sciences. The long term goal is creation of a self-sustaining, regional biomedical technology transfer accelerator that will increase the number of biomedical technologies translated and new startups formed. In the first phase of the project, we will use the extensive training experience of BBCetc and the life science expertise at KU to build the leadership and governance framework of the accelerator hub, and establish the mentoring program, training curricula, and networking infrastructure at KU. During the first phase, we will also build relationships with targeted universities in the other four states of the Central Region, sign a memorandum of understanding with these universities, and host a regional conference. In the second phase of the project, we will roll out the mentoring program, training curricula and networking resources to the other four states. During the second phase, we also aim to implement a grant program to selected pilot projects using matching funds from outside of NIH dollars. To sustain SHARP Hub at the completion of the second phase, we intend license materials and protocols to biomedical technology transfer offices at universities nationwide with incremental services for a fee.

项目摘要/摘要 尽管NIH每年投资了数十亿美元的生物医学研究，但仍在 有效地将基础科学发现从学术界转化为受益的商业产品 患者。这些障碍包括基础研究和商业发展之间的资金差距 创新者缺乏有关如何将产品推向市场的知识，并且缺乏足够的知识 早期发展所需的商业化资源。为了满足这一需求，这个项目 将开发一个五个州生物医学技术转移加速器中心的枢纽 国家（堪萨斯州，内布拉斯加州，俄克拉荷马州，北达科他州和南达科他州）。这个加速器中心将是 被称为可持续的心脏加速器区域伙伴关系（Sharp）中心。由BBC领导 企业家培训和咨询有限责任公司（BBCETC）和堪萨斯大学（KU），Sharp Hub 将实施三管齐下的方法，以包括指导计划，企业家培训 课程，网络和外展工具。这些资源将用于大学或 在健康科学中发展技术商业化能力的区域财团。长 术语目标是创建一个自我维持的区域生物医学技术转移加速器 增加了翻译的生物医学技术的数量，并形成了新的创业公司。在第一阶段 该项目，我们将利用BBCETC的广泛培训经验和KU的生活科学专业知识 建立加速器中心的领导和治理框架，并建立指导 KU的计划，培训课程和网络基础架构。在第一阶段，我们还将建立 与中央地区其他四个州的目标大学的关系，签署备忘录 与这些大学的理解，并举办区域会议。在第二阶段 项目，我们将向其他人推出指导计划，培训课程和网络资源 四个州。在第二阶段，我们还旨在为选定的飞行员实施赠款计划 使用来自NIH美元外部的匹配资金的项目。在完成时维持锋利的枢纽 第二阶段，我们打算将许可材料和协议用于生物医学技术转让办公室 在全国范围内，有额外服务的大学费用。
