This course is meant for students in engineering and other disciplines who seek a challenging, interactive, team-based, and hands-on learning experience in entrepreneurship and technology. In this highly experiential course, students work in simulated start-up teams to create products or start-up ideas to address a broadly-defined need of an industry partner or social challenge.

**This course counts towards the Sutardja Certificate in Technology and Entrepreneurship. Additional information: https://scet.berkeley.edu/courses/ ** We believe healthcare is poised to change in the next few decades and one of the fundamental force vector of change is data and the free flow of health data cross platforms. Similar to how data is now flowing freely online from search engines to consumers, health information and insight needs to also flow freely but in a way that protects privacy and confidentially. Students will explore how to leverage blockchain technology to provide better privacy and security to consumers regarding their health information. Students also explore if smart contracts can be used to allow for transfer of information both genetic and phenotypical information among health providers, data analytical platforms, hospitals and government agencies in a way that is both secure but provides a level of control and transparency to end consumers. The class will explore these topics and the teams will be challenged to come up with ideas to enable this new market. The winning team will win a cash award in a coin that is actively traded on one of the major exchanges.
