I HAVE SEEN POSTER-CHILD EXAMPLES OF DREADFUL TECH TRANSFER OFFICES at some universities and hospitals worldwide, that would make truly shuddering B School case studies. For example, 90% stock ownership by the hospital, of a preclinical therapeutic, with anti-dilutive clauses, refusal of VC offers, and board seats. I have advised entrepreneurs in these cases to walk, because these deals are unfundable, and are only fit for really bad case studies of the Dark Ages. We must get a modern and level Playing Field to avoid self-strangulation.
