This week’s show proves that no matter what field you’re in, it has a lot of parallels with other fields.  Our guests for this episode are Alyssa and Don from SciVelo, a unique organization affiliated with the University of Pittsburgh.  SciVelo calls their work “commercial translation” - and it’s not what you think.  Rather than translating between spoken languages, SciVelo translates the work of one set of professionals for use by others, specializing in the research work done at Pitt.  Pitchwerks listeners should hear a number of interesting things, especially how the SciVelo team organizes its inventory, its prospects and its opportunities like any other business.
