A TRL ladder that fits with this text: Some of the most promising deep tech breakthroughs never make it past the research paper stage. Not because they don鈥檛 work鈥攂ut because there鈥檚 no infrastructure, team, or capital to carry them across the messy middle. The gap between a lab prototype and a commercial product is wide, and most founders are left to figure it out alone. If we want more science-backed startups to thrive, we need to start funding and building the in-between. I鈥檇 love to hear from others navigating this space鈥攚hat have you seen work when bridging the research-to-market gap? Voir plus
