Bringing ARPA-Style R&D Know-How to Korea, Straight from the Source ๐ฏ
From June 10th to 12th, the K-Health MIRAE Initiative successfully completed 'BiTS (Big if True Science)'—a Project Manager training course a PM training course used by ARPA-style research organizations in the United States — introduced in Korea for the very first time.
Through this intensive program, our team gained firsthand insights into the core philosophy and practical know-how of ARPA-style R&D straight from former .straight from former Project Managers at DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) and BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority).
๐น The Heilmeier Catechism — a pivotal planning framework to clarify research goals, success criteria, risks, and expected impacts
๐น Milestone Setting and Go/No-Go Decision Criteria
๐น Risk Management
๐น Technology Transfer & Commercialization Strategy
"The success of challenge-driven and innovative R&D hinges entirely on the planning and management capabilities of its PMs," emphasized Sun Kyung, Director of the K-Health MIRAE Initiative, expressing his hope that this training serves as a strong launchpad for our team.
We'd like to thank our valued BiTS mentors — Jean-Paul Chretien, Leonard Tender, and Sandeep Patel — for sharing their invaluable expertise.
Stay tuned for the next breakthrough coming from the hands of our PMs. ๐
