Revolutionize Healthcare with AI: Join the AI-Powered Innovation Course

In the realm of health innovation, the pursuit of product-market fit is like an elusive alchemy of transmuting lead into gold. This mirage can lead even the most experienced and resourceful teams to chase WOMBATs – waste of money brains and time. Needs Driven Innovation (NDI) puts the patient at the center of all decisions, creates a system around their unmet needs, and treats every step of development with an exactness that leaves no room for waste. It is market-product fit, not the reverse. It is the cleanest, clearest system for innovating in an environment where risks must be purged, costs must be contained, and results must be meaningful. It is done with the same care you might use when defusing a bomb.

It’s against this backdrop that we offer a meticulously designed 10-week educational program for scientific and medical professionals seeking a repeatable method to always find their best ideas. In this course, participants will become experts in Needs Driven Innovation and have access to the latest Innovation as a Platform AI Co-Pilots to enhance the speed and quality of their innovation, enabling us to distill a 9-month process into 10 weeks. Time commitment required per week is 3 to 5 hours broken down into a 1 to 1.5 hour weekly didactic, a 1 hour dedicated mentoring meeting scheduled at a time that works for your schedule, and any additional time needed for you and your team to complete each week’s deliverables.

Throughout this intensive program, cross-functional teams will dive into the rigorous process of identifying an unmet need, meticulously filtering down to the most pressing one, and then inventing the most effective and impactful solution. Participants in this course will learn a proven framework of innovation while working on real projects that just might transform their thinking, their career, and the lives of patients in need.
