Recognizing We've discussed the problems in the biomedical field is only half idea of the battle. Once student nurses partnering with local businesses to promote collaboration between students and other clinical health science students discover a problem they. generally, do not have any way to fix it or report it. This is where the Idea Pipeline comes in. The Idea Pipeline creates a way to report problems professionals in the biomedical industry from student experiences community, and takes them directly to will be looking into this further in the engineers who have the background in technology to develop innovative solutionsfuture.
Not only does this promote collaboration between differnent colleges at the university, it also gives projects to professors in the engineering college for their classes, and provides engineering students with a real life issure to solvehttps://docs. In addition, this Idea Pipeline has the potential to create biomedical start-ups in a city that has many resources for testing and promoting biotechnologygoogle. com/drawings/d/1PlqMd97pZhDLxHEkSo_tkOKxDZSdpFuuNxYEIwFUJmc/edit
The project would start as a partnership between the College of Engineering - Product Design & Manufacturing section and the College of Nursing clinical studentshttps://docs. The project will start with a presentation to the Student Nurses Association and hosting an event for Nursing Extra Creditgoogle. This will give use access to several student contacts and allow us to test out the Idea Pipeline. Next semester we hope to incorporate it into the cirriculum and have an online reporting system up and running through Grand Valley's website. The problems reported will be put into a pool and the top problems will be implemented as projects for the Product Design courses. com/drawings/d/1EhUtVbTGgIYEgt0wp4nGdF6lx2yZi_G4_OTu91swgrc/edit

From the business model competition we We have several contacts at a few of the schools, however, more research and networking would need to be done (possibly between existing clubs on campuses) to gather student interest at each of the universitiescolleges. This club would serve be able to inspire new innovation by bringing in speakers tackle problems both on and hosting workshops while also serve as a place off campus, work to further develop create student run products, and create an environement of innovation and design existing ideas into companiesentrepeneurship on campus.

The GVSU innovation fellows realized that there are many great resources for entrepreneurs in Grand Rapids, although they often don't have the inspiration or the information to start. The two strategies we propose to work on immediately focus on introducing better methods to inspire young, innovative students at Grand Valley to adopt an entrepreneurial mindset. Afterwards, we want to develop a communication pipeline so that good ideas can travel to a place they can be nurtured and grown into a solution.
PROJECT #1 - Health Science and Engineering Idea Pipeline Mobile Maker Space [6 9 months+]
This project would be collaboration between is an intro into a maker space. Due to the College spread out nature of Engineering and the College of Health Sciencesour campus, getting a single space would make it difficult to include everyone. Both of these buildings are located in downtown Grand Rapids within Using a half mile of more mobile area would make it easier to engage both the Medical Mile. Often times, student nurses, physical thereapists, occupational therapists downtown campus and other health science students will do a semester of clinical training out in the fieldmain campus 20 minutes away. These clincal Currently our main initiative is to get students are brand new to the hospital scene and therefore have an easier time determining what problems exist in faculty behind the biomedical field. For examplearea, while a seasoned nurse might assume that completing a task would as the students will be time consuming becasue "that is the way they have always done it"driving force behind an ever increasing maker space. Without student and faculty backing, a student nurse might ask why it has to be done that way the space wont ever create the environment of innovation and be able to suggust a way to do it differentlycollaboration we're seeking.
PROJECT #2 - Catalyst: Inspiration Event TEDX Meetups [6-9 months]
The goal of this project is to get students inspired to create and innovate. We hope to host a TEDx talk at Grand Valley and try to focus on the innovative ideas in the community and state that have made large impacts. If we cannot get licensing for a TEDx talk we would host our own version of TEDx to get students inspired with the focus on local celebrities, investors, entrepreneurs, and resources.
We recognize that inspiration is a key component to having student innovation at a university; currently there are a good amount of resources for entrepreneurs but they are not known to any students outside of the business school. In order to have successful innovative ideas come from our University, students from all disciplines need to come together on projects to highlight a variety of talents. By providing a resource of inspiration to all majors and promiting this even campus wide we believe we can reach many students and inspire them to start creating together.
Various businesses in the Grand Rapids area are interested in doing a monthly version of this, if we partner with them it may bring in a wider audience and allow for more renowned speakers to attend.

In addition, this could be run as an add on to PROJECT #1 once it gets going. Since the projects coming from the Idea Pipeline would be for a new product, having business majors on a team for that would be quite beneficial in order to determine if the product would be viable in the real world.
If we see success in this program, possibly utilizing a style similar to the Purdue EPICS program, it can be expanded to include other colleges and majors.

PROJECT #4 - Student Inovation Group [12-24 months]
There are a total of 8 seperate colleges in West Michigan which all came together for at GVSU, but there is very little ollaboration between the first time last year in West Michigan's first multi-college business model competitionseperate majors. In hopes of gathering people from all majors and fields, we believe it would be a good idea to create club or meeting group that crosses the college boundaries to pursue innovation. Several All of the colleges in West Michigan at Grand Valley specialize in a particular field, this which would be helpful in creating a diverse group of people with whom a student could brainstorm with or get help on a project with. With such a diverse group of students, many different ideas would be feasible.
There are several places in Grand Rapids that exist to help entrepreneurs and to bring entrepreneurship to West Michigan and we believe they would be more than willing to host or even sponsor a group like this. There are also many issues on campus that seem to lack multi-disciplinary involvement or are being tackled at a slow pace, and with a diverse group there would be many opportunities for collaboration.
