Fungi belonging to the genera "Trichoderma" and "Gliocladium" are
soil-bourne saprophytes which have been used for industrial and
agricultural applications for decades. Some strains produce enzymes
and antibiotics while others are useful as biological agents for
the protections of plants against pathogens. This first volume of
two, gives a detailed account of the morphology and taxonomy of
"Trichoderma" and "Gliocladium", before disscusing their ecology
and basic biology. Molecular biological aspects examined include
their genome and gene structure, genetic transformation and asexual
genetics. A chapter on safety aspects is also included.
This book explores different aspects of entrepreneurship from both
an academic and a commercial point of view. The first chapter the
university culture is considered. The nature of the technology or
service is important. Some technologies are adaptive, in that they
are developing products that are already in the marketplace, and
these fit easily in academic institutions. Other technologies are
disruptive and new products must be developed. These fit less
easily into university structures since a commercial entity is
required. Chapter 4 considers the important requirements of
conflict of interest (COI). Either the university culture or COI
can hinder or aid entrepreneurial faculty. The second
chapter deals with the reasons why an individual faculty might wish
to become entrepreneurial. In many cases, a faculty member wants to
see their technology in practice and not just a publication in a
scientific journal. If a technology is disruptive, then a
commercial entity is probably essential. If so, then funding must
be obtained. There are “valleys of death” (1) where scientific
discoveries to useful products and (2) the development, production
and marketing of a commercially viable product. Chapter 6 deals
specifically with methods of funding start-up companies.
Chapter 3 describes several innovative programs in biology. These
include genetic approaches, plant management systems and the
author’s own program that deals with microbial approaches to
sustainable agriculture. Chapter 5 describes the crucial
areas of agreements, contracts, regulatory affairs and patents.
These legal documents are critical components of entrepreneurial
efforts and must be understood and pursued correctly.
Finally, this book could have been entitled “things I wish I had
known when I first started commercial activities.” It is my hope
that it can make the path of fledgling entrepreneurial smoother and
more successful.
