Currently pursuing a masterMaster's degree in business from Healthcare Innovation at the Lancashire School University of Business and Enterprise, England. With extensive experience as a Medical Education Programme CoordinatorCambridge, he actively supports the operational delivery of is conducting research that interrogates equity considerations in medical education programmes in Oxford. During device bias—bridging his MBA studies, Dinesh assumed various managerial roles, gaining valuable experience in administration, accounting, and HR over the course of two years. With a engineering background (bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Dinesh engaged in with research focused on addressing the latency issue inherent in the CORDIC algorithmdigital signal processing) and business acumen (MBA, a widely used algorithm in Digital Signal Processing computing elementary functions. By proposing Lancashire School of Business and Enterprise) with the utilisation critical question of who benefits from innovation. His experience as a Medical Education Programme Coordinator with the Angle Recording Method, his project aimed to reduce latency and enhance accuracy, particularly in generating sine and cosine functions within a low-latency CORDIC architecture.<p dir="ltr" style="line-heightNHS grounded this perspective: 1.68; texthe witnessed first-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.68; text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Dinesh has also been involved hand how technology adoption in numerous projects related to Embedded Systemshealthcare systems depends not on technical merit alone, but on addressing structural inequities and building inclusive stakeholder engagement. Notably, he led the innovation team for the Sieger Pro Karting Innovation ChampionshipThis intellectual journey informs his current work, where he developed a mobileevidence-based Kart monitoring and controlling system using the Internet of Things (IoT). In addition, he contributed policy advocacy has become central to the development of an automated irrigation monitoring system using the Arduino IDE. Dinesh's expertise spans both the technical background and the domains of design thinking and business, enabling him to bridge gaps in medical education programs by integrating technology to address health inequalities and improve healthcare outcomes.<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1his practice.68; text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.68; text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">As a University Innovation Fellow, Dinesh collaborated with key stakeholders on campus to identify and address the needs of studentscatalysed tangible shifts in innovation culture within higher education. His team focused on improving learning outcomes and fostering Rather than simply organising workshops, he identified a sense systemic gap—the absence of community among students from various entrepreneurial infrastructure and design thinking literacy amongst engineering backgroundsstudents—and co-designed solutions that created lasting institutional change. By co-hosting, facilitating multidisciplinary design thinking workshops for students and faculty, Dinesh facilitated multidisciplinary collaboration, leading to the creation of an Incubation Centre on campus. Recognising a lack of an innovation ecosystem, he co-organised design thinking workshops for students interested in startups and entrepreneurship, resulting in the generation of more than generated 15 + credible startup ideas and the establishment of a vibrant culture of innovation and entrepreneurship established an on -campus. Dinesh's commitment Incubation Centre that continues to professional growth extends beyond his academic pursuitssupport student ventures. As a University Innovation FellowHis work demonstrated that innovation ecosystems are built not through events, he received comprehensive training but through intentional community-building and attended addressing the Eastern Hemisphere meetup in psychological and structural barriers to participation. These experiences took him globally—from Bangalore, India, and the European meetup at to the University of Twente, the Netherlands. Dinesh actively contributed to the University Innovation Fellows community by serving Stanford—where he continues contributing as a Fab at the March 2023 Silicon Valley meetup hosted at Stanford Universityfacilitator, sharing methodologies for scaling innovation culture.
