PLANO, TX & NEWPORT BEACH, CA — The Innovation Institute announced that Dell Services has agreed to become the founding health care information technology partner of The Institute’s Innovation Lab in Newport Beach, CA.
The Innovation Institute corporate health-care incubator is structured to facilitate innovation among inventors, health care plan providers, medical facilities, physicians and employees across major health care organizations.
