Exploring Technical Leadership from Executive to Entrepreneur
(Co-Hosted by MIT HEALS)

September 17 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Location: Room 32-155

This workshop is co-hosted by MIT Health and Life Sciences Collaborative (MIT HEALS) which brings together researchers from all over the Institute to find new solutions to challenges in health care. 

Explore what it takes to lead in engineering – from the boardroom to the startup garage.

In this interactive GradEL workshop, you’ll dive into the mindsets and skills that unite technically-minded executives and entrepreneurs alike: navigating uncertainty, leading cross-functional teams, and making tough decisions in the face of failure. Through real talk, reflection, and stories from a leader who’s done it all, you’ll uncover what kind of leader you want to become – and how to get there.

Leader:

Rahul Singhvi, Sc.D., MBA, and MIT Course 10 Alum is a globally recognized leader in the life sciences and biomanufacturing space, serving as Co‑Founder and CEO of National Resilience, Inc., where he led a high‑tech, end‑to‑end manufacturing platform for advanced medicines. Prior to his entrepreneurial endeavors, he held executive leadership roles as COO of Takeda’s Vaccine Business Unit and President & CEO of Novavax, where he transformed the company into a leading vaccine developer.

(Dinner is included with this workshop.)
