Qi3 provides a core team of people
experienced in technology, business
management, sales and marketing. We
have built up a selected network of
individuals and companies with whom
we work to provide a full range of
services. In total, this allows us
to support all aspects of incubation
and growth of technology enterprises.
Science and Engineering
We work together with a range of
skilled individuals, each of whom
provides expert knowledge of technology
and market applications. These
help to broaden our natural science
and engineering base. We are fortunate
in particular to work with a number
of excellent engineers who complement
our own commercial bias.

Marketing Communications
Many marketing agencies find it difficult
to cope with business-to-business
technology markets, OEM and licensing
situations. We have built up strong
relationships with companies experienced
in print and new media, which are
able to deliver integrated marketing
campaigns at a price affordable
to our start-up and spinout situations.
This combines well with our own
strengths in campaign management,
technical copy and project management
to form a team able to handle all
of your technical marketing requirements.
Venture
Capital and Business Angels
We
work together with a number of venture
capital groups, individuals and consortia
of business angels in cases where
business equity is required. Qi3
also has direct access to seed funding
in certain cases (please see new
enterprise creation for
further details). We are also able
to provide and recommend mentors
and non-executives sympathetic
to technology businesses.
Legal and Intellectual Property
We always recommend that protection
of Intellectual property should
proceed in tandem with development
of the business case for a new
enterprise. We work together with
legal firms whose emphasis is on
staged investment and a strategic
approach to Intellectual Property
management.
