From Stanford Research to Startup

​What does it take to turn a promising idea into a company? Join Brian Bartholomeusz, Managing Director of Innovation Transfer at Stanford’s TomKat Center for Sustainable Energy; Caraiosa O’Farrell, a Stanford founder; and a representative from StartX’s energy vertical for a conversation about the journey from research to commercialization.

​Bringing together perspectives from technology transfer, startup building, and founder support, the panel will explore how to validate an idea, navigate early challenges, and tap into Stanford’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Whether you’re building your first hackathon prototype or considering launching a company, come learn what it takes to move an idea forward.

​Organized by: Stanford Cleantech Hackathon (presented by Stanford Climate Week) and Raisable Founders Hub
