The group formed a sustainable medical device venture called NextMed.<\/p>\n<p>A 2019 report revealed that the combined waste of 110 Canadian hospitals amounts to approximately 87,000 tonnes a year. NextMed\u2019s goal is to reduce the consumption of single-use medical devices. It\u2019s a solution that health authorities and the government are urgently seeking, as Enchelmaier and his team discovered in their extensive market research.<\/p>\n<p>As the reusable IV bag prototype took shape, the interdisciplinary team members brought their unique expertise to the table. Enchelmaier and his business colleagues Sean Kyer and Wilson Cao validated the venture\u2019s concept, overseeing project management and developing NextMed\u2019s business plan, financial models, and marketing strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Enchelmaier enjoyed being able to apply his course theory into practice, while also learning about market definition, financial projections, the design cycle, product marketing, manufacturing, and distribution.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1250023\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-sizes=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-1250023 size-full lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-171x96.jpg 171w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-489x275.jpg 489w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/macleans.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/UBC_Oct2023_inline-766x431.jpg 766w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">NextMed student team.

Photo credit: Martin Dee<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s remarkable is how each student contributed beyond their field of study, fostering an invaluable culture of cross-functional collaboration,\u201d says Fraser Pogue, Entrepreneurship and Innovation Lead. \u201cNew Venture Design student teams regularly gain recognition in worldwide competitions and continue to build innovative companies beyond the classroom. I was proud to see the NextMed team take second place at this year\u2019s World\u2019s Challenge case competition at the UBC Global Lounge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NextMed\u2019s talented multidisciplinary team was key to the rapid turnaround of its IV bag prototype. \u201cPeople are a business\u2019s most valuable resource,\u201d Enchelmaier says. \u201cWithout the diverse team we had, something of this magnitude would not have been possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Their innovative approach addresses the full lifecycle of used IV bags. The bags are collected and transported to regional reprocessing facilities where they undergo rigorous cleaning, sterilization, refilling and resealing\u2014a sustainable practice that not only reduces waste but also bolsters supply chain resilience.<\/p>\n<p>As Enchelmaier discovered, \u201cCreating a local supply chain is, in some ways, disaster-resilient. Having reprocessing facilities near hospitals lowers the odds of supply chain disruption, which was an issue we witnessed during\u00a0the Covid-19 pandemic.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Moving_toward_an_innovative_future\"><\/span>Moving toward an innovative future<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>NextMed has already made significant environmental strides and holds the potential to transform healthcare practices. Enchelmaier believes that disrupting industries and processes to benefit the planet is a crucial part of progress. \u201cWe\u2019re focused on sustainable development\u2014this means we are striving to create an improved health system that supports the needs of those today, without compromising the needs of those in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taking the leap into entrepreneurship via New Venture Design has been an experience that has significantly enriched his student life at UBC Sauder, and boosted his future career prospects.<\/p>\n<p>Before his final year at UBC Sauder, Enchelmaier spent a transformative summer as a Venture Recruitment Intern with start-up accelerator <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sr.studiostack.com\/c\/link?l=1391057&amp;s=1391038\">Creative Destruction Lab Vancouver<\/a>.
