Innovate Carolina 2023 Recap
Sustainable Innovation: Building Resilience into your Products, your Teams, your World
|
|
|
|
|
On Saturday April 22, the Carolinas Chapter of PDMA presented their 14th annual Innovate Carolina conference.
Under the broad topic of Product Resilience and Sustainable Innovation, the PDMA’s Carolinas Chapter presented a virtual conference highlighting innovators of the future.
Featuring:
Keynote speaker Michael Arena on how managers can blend virtual and face-to-face work to avoid the loss of connections and social capital that hybrid work brings. He introduced an alternative organizational design that leaders can adopt to overcome the losses and limitations of a hybrid environment.
Student Showcase: A highlight of the conference was the presentation of the winners of the 2023 local Student Innovation Competition.
Announcing the winners of PDMA Carolina’s Student Innovation Competition…
- Fifty-six students participated this year and 10 Faculty advisors guided their students, with representation from Clemson University, North Carolina State University and Duke University.
- Teams were assessed on detailed responses to 3 questions: 1) Is it real? 2) Can we win? and 3) Is it worth doing? Judges were from the PDMA Carolinas Board.
- Graduate Category First place is Durabloom from Duke University.
- Idea: A surgical tool to more effectively repair cerebrospinal fluid leaks in the mastoid of the skull posterior, that affects ~ 16,000 people every year. See their presentation here.
- Team Members: Nicole Zimmer, Christopher Robinson, Adalberto Machin, Natalie Johnston,Natalie Strassheim, Quinn McCutcheon, Yuan-Ni (Sydney) Yeh, Saroja Ramachandra, Kimia Mahboub
- Undergraduate Category First place is The Nairo/CS Medical from Clemson University
- Idea: A heated respiratory humidifier ventilator attachment for use during burn victim surgery. This product provides a more effective way of preventing hypothermia of the patient during surgery, while also enabling the operating room to be controlled to an optimum temperature for OR staff. See their presentationhere.
- Team Members: Allison Jacob, Shreya Thammana, Caroline Peak, Cyndel Streeter, Jay Baek
- Undergraduate Category Second Place Team: EnteroFlux from North Carolina State University
- Idea: An optical sensing system that notifies physicians and healthcare providers of an anastomotic leak, a common and potentially life-threatening complication associated with the colectomy procedure to treat colon cancer. This detection reduces the lag between diagnosis and repair, leading to better patient outcomes. See their presentationhere.
- Team Members: Andrew Hoang, Keith Abbey, Tyler Lee, Sasank Sivadanam, Alex Sprague, Helen Tran
- Undergraduate Category Third Place Team: ProbeMate from Duke University
- Idea: An ultrasonic device that improves the ergonomics associated with sonography, thereby reducing work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs). Probemate has been designed to address WRMDs specific to perinatal sonographers and OB/GYNs.
- Team Members: Amari Crittenden, Hannah Mekaru, Chandler Wimmer

Say goodbye to normal.”
