Do you have/or work with health and care focused innovations?
Do you want to learn how to overcome/alleviate barriers that can prevent adoption and success of these innovations?
The road from idea to commercialisation can be filled with speed bumps, diversions, green lights, red lights, and ‘turn around when possible’ situations.
Join Health Innovation Wessex for an exciting evening of discussion with four innovators who have learnt from their experiences and can now pass on how they navigated this sometimes unpredictable road.
The innovators presenting represent a variety of career backgrounds, products, and barriers experienced whilst developing their innovations in the health and care landscape.
Themes that will be focused on include the development of health tech, meeting regulations, market access, and adapting your product to meet the needs of the demand.
In addition to hearing the innovator perspective, Health Innovation Wessex will also be sharing how they can support innovators to overcome barriers and steer the course from idea to adoption.
There will be opportunity to pose your questions to the panel of innovators and staff from HIW during our Q&A session.
