DESCRIPTION

The Healthcare Entrepreneurship Lab offers a unique opportunity for students to be part of a local early-stage healthcare company. Students apply the foundational learnings from Kellogg's strategic training to address real and complex entrepreneurial challenges in healthcare. Students are guided by the Kellogg instructors and the company's executive. Instructors bring extensive experience as investors and entrepreneurs in the medical device, health IT, and pharma/biotech areas.

Students work with a startup (medical devices, digital health, biotech/pharma, services) on a mutually agreed project and work plan. The project will be strategically important to the company and will benefit from the students' knowledge and broad perspective gained from their studies at Kellogg.

All projects are selected and uniquely designed to expose students to the challenges of an early-stage health care company and at the same time provide a unique learning experience not fully available in other courses at Kellogg. It is geared towards students with a serious interest in entering the world of early-stage health care companies either as an entrepreneur or early-stage investor and who are seeking real life experiences and industry contacts.
