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 8 September 2020, from 17:30-19:00, we will organize the PIHC Matchmaking event. This year we will date online, giving researchers and clinicians the opportunity to find a partner to turn their idea into a PIHC2020 proposal.
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 2020, but also in long-lasting collaborations, additional funding and clinical impact.
