Pioneers in HealthCare: Matchmaking event
Within the Pioneers in Health Care (PIHC) Innovation Fund, the University of Twente, Saxion, Medisch Spectrum Twente, ZiekenhuisGroep Twente and Deventer Hospital have a mutual goal: faster introduction of innovative technology in clinical practice. The Pioneers in Healthcare Innovation Fund pioneers both by developing new technology for clinical problems, and by exploring the possibilities to use existing technology for new medical applications.
On Tuesday 10 September 2019, from 17:00-20:30, we will organize the PIHC Matchmaking event at the Technical Medical Centre at the University of Twente, During this event we provide an excellent opportunity to start new collaborations or strengthen your current connections. This event might not only result in inspirational new project proposals for the PIHC call 2019, but also in long-lasting collaborations, additional funding and clinical impact.
