The Innovation in Action competition harnesses the talents of Michigan students to address real-world problems. Having completed its third year, the competition has expanded from its original public health focus to include an education track. Within this framework, the program equips students with an innovator’s toolkit in a supportive environment where they combine new, marketable skills in innovation and social entrepreneurship with their creativity and passion to make an impact.
