Francesca Kuglen has numerous patents that have been successfully licensed to large corporations. Finding customers is a huge challenge for many small businesses. I wanted to talk to Francesca because she has really great insight on how to create strategic brand alliances that lead to increased awareness and success of the products that she develops.
