Monica Healthcare: From the research laboratory to commercial reality—A real‐life case study

Hayes?Gill, Barrie R.

Abstract

The desire of many engineers is to see their work end up as a final product offering a real benefit to society—for a lecturer/professor at a university, this is a dream often out of reach of the majority. However, the university academic is a changed species from the early days of the binary line between Universities and Polytechnics and when a lecturer meant just that—teaching to future engineers. This article describes the process and experience gained by a university engineer to spin out their research from the university sector and achieve the goal of a product reaching a global audience.
