NUS TechLaunch & Frugal Innovation Lab
invited to Take-off! by Luda Kopeikina and Prof. Hang Chang Chieh, director of the Institute of Engineering Leadership (IEL). Luda managed the TechLaunch program and the Frugal Innovation Lab, both initiatives having adopted the BM canvas in their program.
“TechLaunch aims at matching inventors, MBAs and PhD-level researchers into start-up teams. TechLaunch guides these teams though a process of validating the pre-selected NUS technologies’ market value and money-making potential (more).
Frugal Innovation Lab assembles cross-disciplinery teams of NUS students for 13 weeks to solve real world problems. Teams must design and prototype solutions for validated emerging market challenges. (more)
Nice talks by EcoBind (non-toxic battery binder), SeeRebro (portable monitoring device of hematoma), SKINetrate (skin-penetration testing device), VersaTile (robot for tiling floors), TransVerter (micro-inverter for solar panels), and NeumoSol (test kits for detecting pneumonia)
