In this episode of Deep Tech LIVE, SOSV and Women Moving Markets present: “Commercializing Deep Tech for Industrial Resilience.” SOSV General Partner Katie Hoffman sits down with Dr. Vanessa Chan, former Chief Commercialization Officer at the U.S. Department of Energy and now Vice Dean of Innovation at Penn Engineering, and Dr. Susan Schofer, Chief Science Officer at HAX and Partner at SOSV.
The conversation dives into the real-world roadmap for deep tech startups, from lab to market, and all the things you should’ve learned in your PhD program, but didn’t.
Tune in for insights on:
🔹 Why Adoption Readiness Levels (ARLs) may be the most important framework you’ve never heard of
🔹 How public-private partnerships are unlocking billions—and how startups can get a better seat at the table
🔹What it takes to win over the market when you’re buried deep in the value chain
🔹 And how paths that started in academia can lead to industry, government and venture capital - with stops at QVC and The Today Show along the way.
From hydrogen hubs to industrial resilience, this episode is a masterclass for anyone involved in the Deep Tech Ecosystem and interested in the keys to commercialization.
