N2 - Despite nurses' crucial role in health care innovation, their expertise remains underutilized. This paper presents the implementation of EntrepreNursing at a tertiary hospital, a framework designed to harness nurses' innovation potential through 3 key components: an acceleration program, strategic startup collaborations, and integrated research. The implementation yielded several successful initiatives, including artificial intelligence-driven pressure ulcer prediction, virtual reality-based pain management, and a nurse-led health care hackathon. By addressing organizational barriers and leveraging nurses' unique clinical insights, EntrepreNursing creates sustainable pathways for translating nursing expertise into practical health care solutions, positioning nurses at the forefront of health care innovation.
