Giving Back In Our Communities

St. Joseph’s Academy students

Mater Dei High School students.
On March 17, The Innovation Institute hosted an Innovation Day for 60 students at St. Joseph’s Academy, a high school in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in association with The Innovation Institute’s member owner Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System.
On April 5, The Innovation Institute hosted another Innovation Day for 80 Mater Dei High School students and 10 teachers at its Innovation Lab in Newport Beach, Calif.
At each event, Innovation Lab staff presented workshops to help students find the “innovator inside.” They were given instruction on how to design and build ideas, and were guided through a process to discover, define, build, test, and iterate a product idea.
