Looking for an opportunity to apply what you have learned?  Looking to be part of a team that is passionate about helping people through the creative use of technology?

 

The thINCubator is officially open in the Mohawk Valley with local entrepreneurs looking to partner with students to help facilitate and generate concept, design, and marketing ideas for several product innovations.  The end result will be promoting the product to potential investors to get these products to market.

The product invention that is linked to the SUNY community is an interactive medication reminder/adherence system that integrates socialization, data collection, and health status monitoring.  The product is known as MABEL - medication alarm bringing electronic love.  We are specifically looking for some software and hardware individuals, students in marketing, and any students in the health services field that have a strong concentration with seniors or chronic conditions.

Formal Meetings are currently taking place on Thursdays at 4-6 if you would like to take advantage of classes presented by a professional entrepreneur that takes us through the stages of product concept to product completion.  We have a workspace and are looking for passionate individuals that want to help keep seniors at home by collaborating, sharing skill sets, and desire to be part of a team.

There are also other products and teams that you may be interested in - please email me below if you have a specific skill set you would like to share.  

 

Below are  some job descriptions for specific positions, but if you are interested, please contact me at kathaleene707@gmail.com to get the conversation started!

 

Looking forward to meeting the next member for TEAM MABEL!
