3 KEY POINTS: 

1. It’s important to create a model where people can come and share their knowledge in order to enrich ideas that aim to innovate and elevate healthcare, while providing grants and supervision.
2. Starting out on your own, creating prototypes and making your ideas come to life - this is all within your reach. 
3. There are people who readily acknowledge and understand a problem and they’re humble enough to know they don’t have enough knowledge. Seek advice, listen to other people and have the passion to solve the problem.
