Case School of Engineering

In September, Case Western Reserve University welcomed 32 advanced degree students and early career professionals from around the world to think[box] for an immersive weekend of programming. Participants were situated into eight teams of four. The groups—made up of individuals from a variety of backgrounds, including research and development, finance, entrepreneurship and more—were tasked with identifying a problem or need in the market, inventing a solution to address the need and designing a business to support it in a healthcare marketplace. The teams have just four days to work through their ideas, develop concepts and pitch their final product or service to a panel of judges.
