The Summer 2020 Lean Educators COVID-19 Dialogue

Please join us on July 24th at 1pm EDT / 10am PDT for a 2-hour virtual Lean Innovation Educators Summit to discuss what we have learned about Lean Launchpad education during the global pandemic.

This conversation led by Steve Blank, Pete Newell, Jerry Engel, and Steve Weinstein will center around best practices in adapting Lean education within this new paradigm. This discussion will be the basis for a second annual Lean Innovation Educator Summit in December 2020. 

The Lean Launchpad pedagogy has revolutionized entrepreneurship education. Since its start over a decade ago by Steve Blank at Stanford University, Lean education has flourished and is now used in I-Corps (including NSF, NIH, DOE), Hacking for Defense (DoD) and many other university courses both in the US and around the world. In December, we gathered for the first time as a group of educators to explore the impact ten years of Lean education has had in our classrooms and beyond.

Since this first summit, the world has changed. The global pandemic has presented challenges to the way we teach. It has also allowed for new innovations and opportunities for Lean Launchpad education.  So, what have we—the leaders of Lean Launchpad education—learned since December?

Join Steve Blank, Pete Newell, Jerry Engel and Steve Weinstein to discuss, learn and share best practices on Lean Launchpad education during the era of COVID-19.
