"We ran the diagnostic thinking we'd validate our existing approach to federal research funding. Instead, we discovered we were missing $2.8M in Track 1 funding opportunities / entire categories we didn't know existed. Used THINK's framework to apply across the board. Six months in, 40% more submissions. It's not just a diagnostic; it's a 5-year strategy reframe."
Director, University Tech Transfer Office
"Our team thought they knew the capital event landscape in our region. The scan showed us 3 major opportunities we'd completely missed / and one was in active RFP. We moved in 6 weeks with a playbook that actually worked. Six months later, we'd closed 2 of the 3. That diagnostic paid for itself in month one."
Executive Director, Economic Development Organization
"We brought in THINK because we needed an outside view of our decision process. What we got was a mirror / they showed us exactly how we think, codified it, and handed us back a system we could scale. Our team went from evaluating capital events ad-hoc to running them through a repeatable framework. That's the real outcome."

The Methodology Behind the Score
Four dimensions. Three validated frameworks. One score.
Blindspot Gap
Infrastructure Blindspot Scanner / Compound Leverage
The formula: Large Capital Investment + Workforce Shortage + Manual Processes = Your Market. Scored across 7 active federal deployment sectors totaling $2.5T+.
Network Proximity
Schmidt Network Platform Map
Applied from Eric Schmidt's 5-year platform prediction discipline. Measures how close your network sits to the Layer 2-3 decision-makers controlling capital in your sector / and whether you're aligned early or reacting after the window moves.
Monopoly Position
Thiel / Zero to One (Stanford, 2014)
The narrowest category you can own completely before competitors recognize the shift. 10x edge, proprietary compound, last mover test / applied to your specific capital event context.
Window Timing
Schmidt 5-Year Prediction Model
The money moves before the behavior does. Window Timing scores how much runway remains before the highest-value windows in your sector close. Early alignment compounds. Late alignment competes on price.
What the Score Actually Measures
Your Capital Event Score measures Layer 6 readiness against capital already moving from Layers 1 and 2. By the time a capital event is visible at Layer 5, the alignment window at Layer 6 is already closing. The score tells you how early you are. Stage 4 Monitoring keeps you that early.
