“I-Corps helped me understand
that our ideas need to be looked at
from an outside perspective.
I also learned that to commercialize
an idea, one needs inputs from
the target market.”

process in a United Nations sponsored

Zoya Sood
Team ICE

“This experience taught me how to work
collaboratively with professionals and
really pushed me out of my comfort zone.
I was surprised to learn how the data we
gained really pushed us to condense and
fine tune our customer segments, and even
led to new segments we had never thought of.”
