Accuri Cytometers exec forms consulting firm, Tyball Associates

Jack Ball has enjoyed the success most entrepreneurs dream about. He served as the chief commercialization officer at Accuri Cytometers when the start-up was acquired last year for a reported nine figures. Today Ball is working to help others do the same with his new company, Tyball Associates.

The Ann Arbor-based firm specializes in bio-tech consulting. More to the point he helps start-ups get their products over the commercialization hump into sales. "I work with various companies helping them get the product to market," Ball says.

Tyball Associates currently employs one person after one year establishing itself in the market. It has clients both in Michigan and on both coasts. Ball expects to double his revenues over the next six months and and hire the company's first employee outside of its founder.

"I would need someone who can go in and help implement the strategies to bring the product to market," Ball says.
