They will analyze, evaluate, and propose enhancements to the founders’ ideas for new health care products/services under faculty guidance and with assistance from experts in the local healthcare community. Students will gain evaluation skills and hands-on, real-world experience working with startups and inventors looking for a top-to-bottom analysis of their technologies and market prospects. [2]
