HEALTHCARE DISRUPTION IS AHEAD: Stop innovating for the sake of innovation- it’s no longer cool. BIOTECH AND HEALTHCARE companies take note!
Paradigm shifts underway: Time for a Blast workshop?
The fastest way to identify major risks and adjust your business model to adapt to today’s world by leveraging our venture studio experts who have all been there and done that.
For several decades now, innovation has been exponentially increasing thanks to the incorporation of technology and the collaboration economy. The result? Large inventories of innovations that need to be validated and adopted in this continuously evolving market. Corporates and investors have heightened their expectations with regards to proof of efficacy and traction, which is why we’ve built processes to help de-risk and accelerate new concepts into the market.
Today, its no longer about taking a singular approach, but rather positioning yourself in the market being crystal clear about the value you offer. Don’t be confused- biotech is living its technological revolution and your paradigm will shift either by choice of circumstance. Take control of your own destiny by discarding the old practices that worked 5 or 10 years ago and building new data-driven business cases that will position you ahead of your competition! If you are looking to save time, money and maximize the value of your company, this is a great way to start. Contact us to learn more about our workshops and how they can be customized to fit your EXACT needs.
Heading towards a Trans-Atlantic Sandbox Program with MeHI and NEXTMED
Want to get feedback directly from a partner hospital?
Shortening your go-to-market cycle is critical to evolving and staying competitive in today’s healthcare economy. One important way to do this is to start with the patients and understand the clinical unmet needs that they are facing. MeHI and Nextmed have agreed to start working at making more available to entrepreneurs a trans-Atlantic Hospital Sandbox Program that allows entrepreneurs to rapidly evaluate their solutions in a clinical context. More will be shared on this on April 27th in the Boston – Strasbourg initiative event. In the era of “radical collaboration” and exponential innovation”, Boston and Strasbourg have been spear leading a new approach that Innouvo has been enabling with many partners. Join us at the event to learn more!
