Overview

From frustration to opportunity: learning to think like a founder

Have you ever noticed a problem in healthcare, disability, or community wellbeing and wondered whether it could become something more?

Whether you're a clinician, researcher, student, community member, or aspiring founder, many impactful ventures begin with the same question:

What problem are we really trying to solve?

As part of the Impact X Program, this engaging short webinar introduces the entrepreneurial mindset behind identifying meaningful problems and opportunities for innovation. Before building a solution, founders need to understand who experiences the problem, why it matters, and what existing approaches may be missing.

What You'll Learn

  • Why many promising ideas struggle because the underlying problem has not been clearly defined
  • How to identify problems that are meaningful, specific, and worth solving
  • How entrepreneurs uncover unmet needs and opportunities for impact in health, disability, and community settings

Whether you already have an idea or are simply curious about innovation and entrepreneurship, this session will provide practical tools to help you see problems through a founder's lens.

The webinar will also introduce the Impact X Program and how it supports early stage founders to explore, test, and develop ideas that create positive impact.

No startup experience required. Just curiosity, critical thinking and a desire to make a difference.
