The training started on October 1, 2013 and runs through December 10, 2013. There are 29 teams in 4 cohorts: therapeutics, diagnostics, devices and digital health. They have a common Lean Launchpad-based curriculum plus special sessions and materials to specifically help the teams:
- Assess regulatory risk before they design and build
- Gather data essential to customer purchases before doing the science
- Define clinical utility now, before spending millions of dollars
- Identify financing vehicles before they’re needed
