All eyes on a niche business

Thomas Hellmann takes a professorial delight in picking holes in the dealing plans of his MBA students at the University of British Columbia’s Sauder School of Subject in Vancouver.

So he had a sobering message for four students enrolled in his 2006 technology entrepreneurship class when their team came up with a proposal for a new type of swimming goggle. The lenses would incorporate a small display of information useful to the serious swimmer, such as lap times, stroke count and heart rate.

One problem was that there was an existing patent for swimming goggles with a head-mounted display. “I told them: ‘If you’re interested in just passing the course, it should be good enough’,” recalls Prof Hellmann. “But if you’re entrepreneurs, you’ve got to rethink it.”

Rethink it they did and two weeks later the team returned with a revised proposal that replaced swimming goggles with ski goggles. “They came from middle of the pack to top of the class,” Prof Hellmann adds.
