William Danon and Luka Yancopoulos, winners of the 2022 President’s Innovation Prize, will offer a software solution to make the health care supply chain more efficient.

Though Danon was a history major in the College of Arts & Sciences, he’s taken several business and entrepreneurship courses at Penn to advance his business acumen. He says it “blew me away” how willing resources on campus, like Venture Labs and the Venture Initiation Program-Community, were to help guide them with the project.

“I was nervous about putting Grapevine out to the Penn ecosystem, initially, because I was like, ‘Alright, just like any academic environment, it’s going to be formal, structured, and we’ll have to hit on these specific things to even participate.’ And what I found was that Penn is remarkably flexible,” Danon says. “Especially with an idea or something you’re working on; they value passion and work ethic.”
