Concept to Commercialization
Virtual Series Presents:
Right-Sizing SOP's
June 22, 2023, 3:00 – 4:00 p.m. EST
Speaker: Trevor Cole, Associate Director, WCG Avoca
Research sites too often acquire a package of SOPs from a vendor, a partner, or an industry peer. SOP checkbox checked, right? Not so fast. While having SOPs in place is typically good, are your SOPs tailored to your institution? Do they align with your processes, staff, and setting? Poorly fitting SOPs can lead to inefficiency, confusion, and worse non-compliance. Even well-designed SOPs need to be evaluated frequently. In this session we will discuss key methods in the process of identifying required procedures, developing those procedures, and implementing to support fitness for purpose. We will also identify key activities to facilitate development and maintenance of quality SOPs and controlled documents.

New Release: Buildings That Create Jobs |
|
Among the many endeavors into which entrepreneurs might invest their time and effort, few are as rewarding and impactful as a business incubator. Recycling vacant buildings to provide job creators a place to set up shop within a community can boost a local economy and benefit nearly every member of a struggling city, town, or village. The need for hometown, community-centric, job-focused, locally sustainable spaces continues to increase. For a distressed community, an incubator might be the right answer. |

One of the greatest strengths of AI is that it takes the emotion out of decision making and machines themselves do not have their own emotions.
