Nurses are the backbone of the healthcare system, and their dedication to helping others is unparalleled. However, what happens when nurses take that passion for others and channel it into entrepreneurship?

More and more nurses are exploring the entrepreneurial world, identifying gaps in patient care, and developing innovative solutions to improve care quality.

With a history of successful entrepreneurial journeys, nurses have turned to healthcare innovation for the betterment of their patients’ lives. Accomplishments like the development of the wound care product Medihoney, which was developed by a nurse in New Zealand, and the founding of Pathways Consulting, which provides services to the organ banking community, would not have existed without the brave step into entrepreneurship that these nurses took.

By exploring entrepreneurial opportunities in healthcare, nurses may not only improve patient care but also advance their careers and create successful businesses. In turn, this can lead to a better healthcare system overall.

If you are a nurse interested in turning your healthcare ideas into successful products or services, then the SONSIEL virtual program on new product and service commercialization is perfect for you! The two-day online program will take place from April 29-30th from 9:00a-3:00p EDT and will cover the principles and actions used for new product and service commercialization.

The program format includes guest speakers that specialize in innovation and startups, instructional content from Drexel’s expert entrepreneurship faculty, interactive exercises, breakout discussions among participants, and a repository of content and resources that will be useful before and after the program.
