Quite often, academic founders get disillusioned by the realisation that customers don’t care how clever the science is, they tend to want something faster and cheaper than what they’ve already got. Insert inevitable Henry Ford quote, but it’s usually the reality

Doing great science doesn’t necessarily mean you can turn it into a great business. But if you can identify who your customers are and can see things from their perspective - which of their real-world problems you’re solving - then you stand a chance
