MATTER Lunch & Learn: Part 1: Commercializing Neuro

This is part one of a two-part series. You can register for part two here.

In this lunch and learn, NTX Services will walk through their three-part approach to support companies in the context of commercialization:

1. Understanding how business models and business plans differ in the neuro space and how commercial models and analyses should be adjusted for the industry
2. What types of market analysis needs to be conducted to support a robust go-to-market plan?
3. How and when a company should start incorporating technical considerations (e.g. IP, regulation, reimbursement) in their strategy?

Join this lunch and learn to learn how to:

• Recognize the main challenges (and opportunities) of business models in the neuro space
• Understand how to tailor your market analysis for neuro companies in the healthcare space
• Understand the key elements of a go-to-market strategy in neuroscience/ neurotech/digital health
• Understand the high-level considerations and pitfalls of key technical considerations (IP, regulatory, reimbursement)

As NTX Services covers their approach to commercialization, their experience is that companies will likely have several questions unique to their own business model and strategy. While NTX Services will keep some time for questions at the end of the session, they will be happy to follow up with companies individually after the session.
