Description: In this course, we will give you an overview of how startups can innovate in industries that are highly regulated. We will outline the industries, and how to advise startups on regulations by thinking of them as good practice guidelines to build better, more ethical companies. You will get a chance to hear from startups operating in highly regulated industries and their bumpy road to market.
Innovating in regulated industries can be daunting, expensive, and highly risky. So, how do you stay innovative with so many rules?
Instead of viewing regulations as a barrier to entry, think of them as good practice guidelines to build better, more ethical companies. But when the world changes and the guidelines no longer make sense - how do we adapt the regulations?
Hear from experts that can guide you through highly regulated industries like healthcare and ESG
