This isn't like normal tech-transfer. Most of the teams that would be looking for funding on a break-through idea, and can't get it from NIH/NSF aren't going to be seasoned tenured faculty. They're going to be senior graduate students and young post-doc's. They'll know the field, but they will have radical ideas and won't fit in to the academic funding heterodoxy. They'll probably be 25-35.
