- Incubating Student Startups in GhanaAbstractThis paper describes the Palm GreenLab and its first GreenLab Startup Weekend to encourageand support entrepreneurial student teams. Palm Institute is a 10-year-old liberal artsuniversity-college in Ghana, whose mission is to educate ethical and excellent leaders in Africa.The Palm GreenLab is an innovation and incubation lab that seeks to “unearth and supporttalents that solve wicked problems with creative ideas, and to nurture and scale the growth ofambitious entrepreneurial projects”. The GreenLab plans to provide an array of offerings andsupport for student entrepreneurship. In Fall 2022, the GreenLab ran its first Startup Weekend -a two day intensive experience in which students pitched and evaluated

EntrepreneurshipAbstractThis work-in-progress paper explores three different academic opportunities that introduceundergraduate students to innovation and engineering entrepreneurship. Courses focused on theexplicit teaching of knowledge, skills, and attitudes associated with innovation andentrepreneurship are inherently able to include learning objectives that align with many of theABET student outcomes, including how to: understand the context in which an engineeringdesign will be implemented, effectively communicate ideas, work in multidisciplinary teams, andparticipate in ethical decision making. The three academic opportunities offered at the Universityof Illinois Urbana-Champaign which are discussed in this paper include: 1) a semester-longintroductory course
Data and business goals from data collected and analyzed throughout the research process. - Evaluate the effectiveness of different types of data visualizations - Learn key data visualization principles and techniques behind creating effective and meaningful visualizations. - Demonstrate the ability to communicate insights from data visualization to stakeholders and using those insights to drive informed decisions. - Recognize ethical considerations relevant to data gathering and data visualization. 6. - Describe the impact level of your research, including

identifying areas ofimprovement within a given system and suggesting opportunities for innovation. Thepromise of many programs is to use ST to evaluate existing knowledge and resourcesrelevant to a particular health systems issue, plan and execute an innovative solution toaddress the issue at hand, evaluate the outcomes of the implementation, and present thesolution to key stakeholders in the host organization engaged in personal self-evaluationand critical reflection [30]. More importantly, the programs promise to deliver“applications of ethical theory to health reform, systems approach to health programmingplanning and evaluation, international comparison of health systems, and an in-depthinvestigation of health sector subsystems or building blocks
