Initiator of MedInnovate, which aims at establishing a European hub for medical innovation and entrepreneurship in MedTech. With fellowship programs and strong support, the goal is to develop the future leaders in innovation of medical technologies. MedInnovate is a public non-profit organization supported by TUM and UnternehmerTUM. MedInnovate aims at a step-wise approach to identify unmet medical needs, and design innovative solution concepts and business cases to boost the startup culture in Germany and the European Union. Based on the successful BioDesign process, medical technology and solutions in the area of BioEngineering are addressed by following a needs-driven framework.During workshops, interdisciplinary teams not only learn how to efficiently identify unmet clinical needs within the routine of a hospital, but also work towards realistic solutions to solve those. Fellows get to know various tools helping them to be successful innovators in medical technology and apply their knowledge directly in a clinical setting.
