15 When? Timing The IED Course is organized on a yearly basis 15 03/2011
16 Who? Stakeholders Imperial Innovations: IED Programme is the perfect tool to develop promising ideas; ICBS: The IED entrepreneurial journey is a rich experience for MBA students and considered to be the flagship of the programme; it s a tool which allows and support a market led approach (<the call for proposals is open for industrial partners as well); Design London Incubator: Very promising business cases (as an output from IED) are candidates for the incubator; Royal College of Art (RCA): a lot of their students apply as ideator; External industrial partners: the chance to let a high potential team work on internally generated ideas in a structured way (e.g. BP); MBA students: joining a highly realistic interactive entrepreneurial training opportunity and possibility to start-up an actual venture if successful; 16 03/2011
17 Where? The IED course is organized at the premises of Imperial College Business School (London); Why? ICBS has adequate facilities to organize such a programme + convenient for the coaches 17 03/2011
18 Why? IED is set up to help people in assessing the commercial feasibility of an idea The team members need to collaborate intensively to develop the business case. They learn to operate in a multidisciplinary team The program has a high visibility and is highly appreciated The program creates a pipeline for interesting and investable projects which can be taken up in the incubator of Design London or by Imperial Innovations 18 03/2011
19 Pros & Cons PROs CONs IED helps people to develop a business case based upon a specific idea, during a specific time frame It is a good learning experience for participants IED is cost effective in scaling coaching efforts for a selected number of projects Risk of having conflicts between the idea owners and the project team in case the market potential of the idea lies in a different area than originally anticipated Challenge to manage teams with a big diversity 19 03/2011
20 ibootcamp 20 03/2011
21 ibootcamp The ibootcamp of IBBT is a entrepreneurial bootcamp organised by IBBT with the support of a Management School to guide entrepreneurial teams towards the presentation of their Business case before a final jury This type of Bootcamp is also organised inside companies for further developing business ideas within the company. ibootcamp is also open for external parties having a business idea lying within the field of IBBT. This open innovation approach is a strength to create an IBBT eco-system open for new venturing opportunities from in and outside. Total budget per bootcamp: Keuro /2011
22 Process in Practice The ibootcamp can be divided into 4 big parts The Call: recruitment and selection of business ideas The Dating: creation of business teams The Workshops: Elaboration of the business case and presentation before a Jury The Jury 22 03/2011
23 Process in Practice The ibootcamp runs over a period of about seven months: e.g. Call for ideas: open for one month December 4 January 2010 Selection of ideas: 5-10 January 2010 Info session for withheld idea owners Posting of ideas on public space: 15 Jan 2010 Recruitment of candidate team members: 5 January 9 February Dating event: 10 February Presentation and selection of teams: 24 February 2010 Confirmation of acceptance to bootcamp workshops: 1 March /2011
24 Process in Practice 1 st workshop: team building to define roles and expectations of each team member, 5 March 2 nd workshop: intro to high-tech entrepreneurship and business plan, inceptum methodology, technology-application matrix, March 3th workshop: business model and marketing, March 4 th workshop: financial planning, April Coaching on demand, 2 days during May Dry run, 26 May Grand Jury, 4 June Feedback and Closing event, 25 June 24 03/2011
25 Parts of the Process Part 1. The call for business ideas The call for ideas is launched towards the entire IBBT-community of researchers and business partners The description of the idea needs to follow the NABC-format Possibility is given to make a video pitch presenting the idea owner and his or her idea Normally about 20 ideas are recruited this way After a first selection looking at the proposal and a quick IP-scan only 12 to 15 ideas are withheld for the next step, e.g. the dating or search for additional team members 25 03/2011
26 Parts of the Process Part 2. The dating or matching of ideas with other people People with complementary skills (finance, marketing, business administration, ) are recruited in the public space At the dating event idea owners can meet these candidates and start expanding their team for the Bootcamp Two weeks later idea owners present themselves before IBBT with their reworked business idea and committed new team members On basis of this presentation teams are accepted or not for the Bootcamp Maximum 5-6 teams can join the next step, e.g. the workshop sessions 26 03/2011
27 Parts of the Process Part 3. The bootcamp workshops The first workshop concentrates on the team, the roles of each team member during the bootcamp and the expectations of each team member if the venture should take off after the bootcamp. After this workshop teams can still withdraw. The second till fourth workshop concentrates on the making of the Business case and the presentation for the Jury. This is a very intensive working period of about 3 months for all team members. Normally each team member must take into account 1 day per week during this period to work together. Thanks to coaching and dry run all teams get maximally prepared 27 03/2011
28 Parts of the Process Part 4. The Jury and closing event When the presentation of the Business case is ready, Teams are invited for their final presentation before the Grand Jury, consisting of IBBT experts and external business and VC experts in high tech startups The Jury evaluates the presentations and decides if teams have passed or not. At the closing event a couple of weeks later, teams are informed of the verdict of the Jury and the next steps /2011
29 When? Timing The first bootcamp was organized in 2008 It is organized on a yearly basis So far the Bootcamp is organized for 2 times, the 3th one has just been started 29 03/2011
30 Who? Stakeholders IBBT: facilitator and generator of IP -> 3 people involved Researchers/business partners: idea owner -> people involved Team members: joining a entrepreneurial training opportunity and possibly a venture when successful -> people involved with objective to form 5 teams of maximum 5 persons per team Jury: IBBT experts and VC experts, one day effort to listen to teams and give their advice -> about 10 jury members 30 03/2011
31 Where? The bootcamp is organized in a comfortable setting outside the IBBT premises and easily accessible for all teams, this is central in the Flemish region. The premise needs a common place for all teams together for the training sessions, and separate break out rooms for the coaching sessions. The workshop sessions (part 3) were originally conceived in a residential manner, but after the first bootcamp this was not perceived as an essential or crucial asset. Teams were then left free to decide for themselves The jury and closing event are organized at the IBBT premises /2011
32 Why? The bootcamp is organized because there is a serious need for multidisciplinary teamwork to translate a business idea into a viable business concept Helping with establishing a good team is already half of the work to be done and also triggering the idea owner to make the best of his business idea It has a high marketing value for the institute because of the strong visibility of the program The program creates also a pipeline for interesting and investable projects 32 03/2011
33 Pros & Cons PROs CONs Bootcamp helps to focus idea owners and team members on their project during a specific time frame Bootcamp is a very effective medium to market the mission of the institute as innovation facilitator Bootcamp is also cost effective in scaling coaching efforts for a selected number of projects Risk of having too high expectations within some teams/team members Challenge to manage teams with a big diversity One needs to have a clear follow-up strategy 33 03/2011
