Course Overview
This 3-day module aims to help participants understand and re-evaluate what it takes to propose and manage the innovation process in a healthcare start-up.
Participants will start out working in teams through the design thinking process – a stepwise approach for identifying opportunities in healthcare innovation. They will then move on to explore strategies and techniques for guiding this process, working with industry practitioners in a living laboratory format with some hands-on practice. During the process, participants will also learn how to adapt to and operate in an innovation-centric organisation, especially start-ups.
The module will finish with an understanding of the framework to outline ways of translating the relevant portions of this approach back into participant’s organisation.
