At its core, what is Sunnybrook Medventions?
Sunnybrook Medventions isn’t a typical incubator or accelerator. Medventions is a hospital-based training program that targets the clinical needs of our patients and nurtures our top entrepreneurial and medtech industry talent in Canada. The program is a multidisciplinary and dynamic community of like-minded clinicians, engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders who share the same vision; to create the future of healthcare and develop a well-trained workforce with the required skills and expertise to translate research outcomes into benefits for Canadians.
Our mission is to build an environment for clinical innovation that will generate a cluster effect of medtech companies. The program bridges the gap between engineering research and clinical domain by immersing trainees in the life of Sunnybrook, allowing them to observe clinical procedures and interact with clinicians.
Meet the founders of the Sunnybrook Medventions Program. Our forward-looking leadership team drives our mantra, guides our strategy, and leads our people. Working with each other and with our trainees, their knowledge and experience come together to make a difference for all our stakeholders – trainees, patients, healthcare providers and medical device industry members.
Our fellows get frictionless access to academic, clinical, and industry leaders from the local health technology ecosystem who provide our fellows with real-world advice on healthcare innovation and technology commercialization. This network of mentors is one of the most valuable benefits of training at Sunnybrook Medventions.
