The Postgraduate Training Program in Health Entrepreneurship is designed to foster a critical understanding and the ability to reflect on the importance of an entrepreneurial attitude among individuals in the healthcare sector.

Throughout the program, participants will acquire the skills needed to identify and pursue innovative business opportunities within healthcare systems. We utilize proven content, methods, and models for assessing and analyzing new venture opportunities. The program aims to prepare individuals for diverse careers in health entrepreneurship and the implementation of innovative healthcare solutions. This program also emphasizes innovation and entrepreneurship within healthcare systems. It is set to launch on January 18, 2024.
