Pitch Workshop - MSK Innovation Competition (Ivey Room 1370)

The Innovation Workshop is open to all London-based entrepreneurial musculoskeletal researchers interested in the MSK Innovation Competition. Offered by the Bone and Joint Institute in partnership with the Pierre L. Morrissette Institute for Entrepreneurship, this event will provide participants with entrepreneurship and commercialization knowledge that will help them craft their initial proposals.

The MSK Innovation Competition includes a $30,000 PRIZE for the most promising musculoskeletal (MSK) research innovation idea. This initiative aims to cultivate skill sets that enable ideas to be successfully pitched to investors and promote entrepreneurial spirit.

The competition is open to all London-based entrepreneurial MSK researchers (e.g. academia, research institutions, research hospitals, startups, etc.). While the research idea should be novel and sound, the competition is for the best pitch – i.e. the presentation that best convinces the investor panel on the value of the idea and how the $30,000 award would improve and/or better illustrate the potential and commercial value of the innovative idea itself.
