About Vice-Principal ResearchSince its inception, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s Partnerships and Innovation카지노 게임 컬렉션s Wings program has helped a diverse, eclectic range of entrepreneurs and innovators successfully launch their businesses. Run by a team experienced in helping startups take flight and drawing on experts in a range of fields, the program has taught participants how to recognize their strengths, focus on what it is they are really selling, and identifying their customers. The program welcomed its final cohort of fledgling startups this January 2023. These are their stories.
Wings helped Eric Hansen understand how much he didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t know about business -- and set him on track. He카지노 게임 컬렉션s not there yet, but thanks to Wings he knows what he needs to do.
It카지노 게임 컬렉션s an exaggeration, perhaps, to say that the eyes are a window to the soul, but they can tell us a lot. In fact, many diseases can be detected through the examination of the iris 카지노 게임 컬렉션 diabetes and a raft of hazards for premature babies among them.
That카지노 게임 컬렉션s the idea behind Hansen카지노 게임 컬렉션s company HealthSmart. There카지노 게임 컬렉션s plenty of available data on the human iris in publicly available data retinal libraries. Take that data, digitize it, and feed that into a learning model for neural network artificial intelligence, and you could begin to connect certain retinal images with certain diseases. This tool could be used to diagnose people living in remote areas, where they couldn카지노 게임 컬렉션t get to see an ophthalmologist, but might be able to reach a hospital or clinic equipped to record their retinas and transmit the data.
A Kingston native with strong Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s connections, Hansen카지노 게임 컬렉션s ideas are the culmination of pretty much his entire working life, from his time at the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s chemistry department, where he was the network administrator, to doing data analysis for call centres, to providing economics-based data models at a startup for health care systems. He and a co-founder created HealthSmart, but little came of it until his employer was bought out during COVID. Hansen then decided to revive HealthSmart on his own.
Hansen had experience across a range of sectors, but, when he got serious about HealthSmart, he realized there were still many things he didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t know. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Especially starting a business.카지노 게임 컬렉션
The Wings program seemed a good way to start, although initially he was uncertain as to what expect.
카지노 게임 컬렉션After the first session,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says, 카지노 게임 컬렉션I thought, 카지노 게임 컬렉션We카지노 게임 컬렉션re on to something here.카지노 게임 컬렉션카지노 게임 컬렉션
What he was being given was a 카지노 게임 컬렉션step-by-step카지노 게임 컬렉션 guide. 카지노 게임 컬렉션It was a basic course in business relations,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. It focused not just on trying to sell your idea, but on selling yourself.
카지노 게임 컬렉션You카지노 게임 컬렉션re introducing yourself to people and trying to make yourself interesting to them as opposed to just your idea.카지노 게임 컬렉션 It카지노 게임 컬렉션s also about listening, about finding out what he terms their 카지노 게임 컬렉션pain points.카지노 게임 컬렉션
카지노 게임 컬렉션The Wings team, with their different focus areas and expertise, were really good at presenting information. They were quick, to the point, and really great at answering questions.카지노 게임 컬렉션 Hansen was impressed as well by his fellow participants. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I found some of the business owners pretty insightful,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says.
In terms of what Wings taught him, Hansen says, 카지노 게임 컬렉션The number one thing was just how much legwork I have to do to get to the starting point where I can turn this into a successful business. It takes more than having an idea.카지노 게임 컬렉션
In the meantime, he has stayed in close contact with Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s Partnerships and Innovation (QPI). 카지노 게임 컬렉션I have a desk at the Seaway Coworking space [provided by QPI] and I go in there almost every day,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I have also had a couple of introductions they set up for me, but I haven카지노 게임 컬렉션t really felt that I was ready for that yet.카지노 게임 컬렉션
His current goal is to find a clinical partner to bring on board, 카지노 게임 컬렉션for credibility and viability.카지노 게임 컬렉션 He hasn카지노 게임 컬렉션t found one yet, but says, 카지노 게임 컬렉션QPI will help do that.카지노 게임 컬렉션
