Breaking the Technical Validation Loop: How Deep Tech Founders Turn Endless POCs Into Actual Revenue
Guest Post By Mark M.J. Scott President of Northern Pixels Inc. You’ve cracked the impossible. Your deep tech solution is genuinely groundbreaking. But a year into commercialization, you’re watching your runway burn while “interested” prospects disappear into endless technical evaluations that never convert to revenue. You’re not failing because your technology isn’t good enough. You’re failing […]
