Join Todd Davey for an interactive workshop designed for early-stage, innovation-driven founders.
About this Event

This interactive session will be led by Todd Davey, Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Institut Mines-Télécom Business School in Paris, Adjunct Fellow at the University of Technology Sydney, and visiting academic at the Technical University of Vienna and Washington University in St. Louis. Todd brings more than 20 years of consulting and commercialization experience, including prior roles with Deloitte Australia’s Technology Commercialisation Group and as part of the executive team of one of Australia’s fastest-growing tech startups in the 2000s. He is an Associate Partner at the University-Industry Innovation Network, author of Entrepreneurship at Universities, and creator of the Startup Engine methodology and TechAdvance™, a tool for evaluating technologies.
The workshop is designed for early-stage, innovation-driven founders who are working to refine problem-solution fit, clarify product-market fit, and strengthen the foundations of a scalable venture.
This session is particularly well suited for traded-sector, innovation-based companies with ambition to grow beyond a local market. Through a structured, hands-on methodology, you will pressure-test core assumptions in your business model and leave with clearer next steps. Attached are additional materials about the session.
Because the format is team-based, we strongly encourage founders to attend with at least one additional team member, such as a co-founder or key collaborator. Participating as a small team will maximize the session's value, but it is not required.
Space is limited to approximately 30 participants, and advance registration is required.
If you have questions about fit or logistics, feel free to reach out to [email protected] We hope you will consider joining us for this focused and high-impact morning.

This event is hosted by the Cascades West Innovation Hub (powered by RAIN) in partnership with the Linn-Benton SBDC.
