Today the National Institutes of Health announced they are offering my Lean LaunchPad class ( I-Corps @ NIH ) to commercialize Life Science. The results from the UCSF Lean LaunchPad Life Science class showed us that the future of commercialization in Life Sciences is Lean – it’s fast, it works and it’s unlike anything else ever done.

We’re going to test this hypothesis by teaching a Lean LaunchPad class for Life Sciences and Health Care (therapeutics, diagnostics, devices and digital health) this October at UCSF with a team of veteran venture capitalists. The teams that took the Lean Launchpad class – get ready for this – had a 60% success rate.

The trick is we use the same Lean LaunchPad / I-Corps curriculum — and the same class structure – experiential, hands-on– driven this time by a mission -model not a business model. Hacking for Defense has its origins in the Lean LaunchPad class I first taught at Stanford in 2011. Our goal was to teach both theory and practice.

But as impressive as its technology is, the Apple’s smartwatch has been a product looking for a solution. Frustrated by the FDA’s 20 th century processes for 21 st century technology, companies hired lobbyists to force a change in the laws that guide the FDA regulations. Much like the NIH SBIR program.)

Beyond just those who will be hearing about the lean startup for the first time, Im expecting to shake a lot of hands and have a lot of interesting side conversations. In many cases I look at an SBIR and say "how about I just build that and sell it to you when it's done," but that is unrealistic today. Halling said.
