Headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, SPARK Co-Lab brings together the best and brightest minds from medicine, science, engineering, the world of business, and beyond. It helps participants understand the importance of identifying unmet medical needs, and teaches them how to evolve their ideas out of the laboratory, into commercial and clinical reality. SPARK Co-Lab is part of the global Stanford University SPARK Program that has been successfully aiding the translation of new medical discoveries over the last decade. SPARK Co-Lab is based on a unique partnership between university and industry experts to provide hands-on training and mentorship, as well as early-stage seed funding.
