Day Twenty Eight: CanYou Build a Hero In 48 Hours?

"If I don't do this, would I regret it? If the answer is yes, then you have to do it."- Unknown

Today is the start to HERO-aton here are at Draper University and its a mad house! We were challenged with 48 hours to create a project that would change the world. The teams where separated in to six different sectors; government, energy ,healthcare, transportation, currency and education. We all came up with a quick idea for one of the six areas and then pitched it to the class. We took a class vote and found the ten best starting ideas.

I joined a healthcare company using blockchain to be able to help researchers share data on pharmaceutical studies to help promote cooperative research. It's a big task to fix the monopoly large pharmaceutical research but its interesting to figure out how blockchain can help overcome these problems.

We are starting from complete scratch to build a complete MVP, Business model and pitch to investors. All of this will be presented on Monday morning to Tim Draper and the rest of the DraperU staff so it's time to get to work!

Cheers,

Courteney
