Innovation Factory

Purpose

Building on the success of the HEALTHI CtO in 2021, Innovation Factory will support companies through the HEALTHI program to work in collaboration with a lead hospital partner (and other ecosystem partners, where appropriate) to access critical services in support of their commercialization efforts, including: (1) comprehensive planning and scoping documents that can act as the foundation of a future hospital-based commercialization project, (2) high-level assessment of clinical viability, and/or; (3) specialized feedback on approach to product development, evaluation or testing protocols and study design. Clinical researchers, data and facilities – including those on the front line of applied research related to COVID-19 – will be used to inform the preparation of deliverables.
