Joshua Makower
One of the core beliefs of biodesign is that anyone, regardless of their background, can be an innovator, and this is one of the reasons I love the work I do! It has been a privilege to invest in and be part of this community, which brings together people from all over the world and all walks of life. I have enjoyed the challenge and opportunity of building collaborative community partnerships, hosting monthly seminars to spotlight underrepresented innovators globally, and contributing to and being a part of a culture that genuinely values diverse teams and perspectives.
