Innovate and Scale Health Solutions in a Global Context
Global Health Track of MIT-Harvard Medical School Healthcare Innovation Bootcamp
May 10, 2022 - June 2, 2022
Born out of the MIT-Harvard Medical School Healthcare Innovation Bootcamp, the Global Health Track is a series of highly interactive modules designed for innovators and entrepreneurs who are compelled to address critical global health issues.Learn more at our webinar with co-directors where they discuss your questions about the Track.
At the end of this course, you will be able to:
– Understand the main specificities of global health markets from an innovator’s perspective, including market trends, global governance, and funding environments
– Apply the concepts and tools learned at the MIT Bootcamp to global health markets
– Understand critical health needs and the use of relevant data sources in a global health environment
In the past couple of years, we have seen countries adapt to the Covid-19 pandemic, creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs in health delivery to introduce innovative products and services or scale existing services to new geographies. Participating in these conversations will give participants an opportunity to learn from and engage with entrepreneurs, investors, providers and government representatives on identifying needs in the global market, testing and scaling solutions and finding the right international partners.
