The EnKoat team was confirmed as participants for the 2018 Spring I-Corps Team Training Program offered at Arizona State University’s campus. The I-Corps program funded by the NSF leads the participating teams through an assumption/hypothesis testing, customer focused discovery process to gather important insights needed to maximize the impact of their innovations. Using Lean Startup methodology, teams are urged “out of the classroom” to conduct interviews, study customer/stakeholder needs, collect feedback, and find partnership opportunities. Team leaders Aashay Arora and Matthew Aguayo are extremely excited about the I-Corps program and said, “We are glad to learn about developing a business plan for our technology. It would be great to discover the market potential of our research using the Lean Startup methodology.”
