to identify, validate, and model the creation of early stage transformative healthcare businesses. Course content and process have taken principles from MIT Hacking Medicine, Design Thinking, Agile Sprints, Business Model Canvas and tailored them to the complexities
and tectonic shifts of healthcare, both in the US and globally. Teams will witness the development, challenges and progress of the other teams attacking different areas of healthcare in the course at regular intervals. By the end of the course, students will
have experienced best practices in identifying and validating health venture opportunities, amid the challenges of navigating the healthcare/disease mapping, team dynamics, and venture capital pitching process.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
