Why Sluice?

When I have one week to solve a seemingly impossible problem, I spend six days defining the problem. Then, the solution becomes obvious.

Arguably, the best innovation training program in the world, Stanford Biodesign, trained 200 postgraduate trainees in its first 20 years. That small group applied that Stanford magic – the Biodesign Process – to create over 100 companies, impacting the lives of 10 million people and generating more than 2,600 jobs (so far). Impressive but shocking because all of this has come from so few. Imagine the world if everyone knew how to innovate like this.

We know how to turn this vision into reality. We've already done it – working with some of the most innovative startups and largest companies, and everything in between, on a global scale. Since 2015, we've trained over 5,000 individuals to recreate that Stanford magic for themselves. Not only have we been trained by Stanford Biodesign, but we've also played a pivotal role in enhancing and implementing its teachings in the corporate and academic ecosystems beyond Stanford. We even authored the book on Needs-Driven Innovation, a process not limited to medicine but enriched with a sharp focus on corporate ecosystem innovation.

During the past decade, we haven't merely remained within the confines of the Stanford Ivory Tower. We've taken action ourselves, founding multiple companies, securing hundreds of patents, and positively impacting over a million patients. Renowned companies worldwide have sought our expertise, enabling them to revolutionize their innovation strategies with patents and multi-billion-dollar product strategies. But we don't scale.

To impact the world at scale, this magic needs to reach everyone. Sluice is the best of that magic – at scale – to empower anyone, everywhere to innovate like a master.
