3. Innovations to meet critical shortages

Much of the news focuses on how hard businesses have been hit by the pandemic. However, entrepreneurship is about finding opportunities and adapting in a dynamic environment.

The shortage of ventilators has spurred multiple innovations such as the possibility of one ventilator serving up to 4 patients and the adaptation of CPAP machines.  Many innovations have increased the supply of protective equipment (PPE) including companies re-purposing production facilities.

For this discussion thread, identify 3 viable innovations for emerging / frontier economies that are suddenly struggling with a high number of COVID-19 cases.  Introduce your innovations in the threaded discussion; others who have the same innovation must cross it off their list. Let’s see how many unique innovations our class can identify!
