Map Curriculum Stages Gates and Support Resources
Curate a tailored sequence of venture-building modules, stage-gates, and advisory assets tailored for university spinouts. Assign specific mentors, legal specialists, and TTO liaisons to each critical pathway gate.
Customising the curriculum ensures founders focus exclusively on high-leverage commercialisation tasks rather than generic startup content. It builds a rigorous framework that enforces go or no-go discipline at every stage.
Present a fully configured Programme Curriculum Map incorporating explicit stage-gates, required evidence items, and resource allocation lists. Secure written commitments from named academic and industry mentors for each module.

Use these to challenge assumptions, pressure-test your logic, and check the quality of this action's output in the context of the parent task and wider venture development.
- 1
What evidence justifies the inclusion of each stage-gate, and how do they directly test commercial viability?
- 2
How have you vetted the external mentors to ensure they understand university IP and spinout nuances?
- 3
Why are these specific technical and regulatory tasks prioritised over earlier customer discovery activities?
- 4
How do the gate criteria prevent founders from advancing on technical progress alone without market validation?
- 5
What resource contingency plan is in place if an assigned domain expert or mentor becomes unavailable?
