Pre-Innovation Challenge: Sustainable Kidney Care
Description
Welcome to this pre-Innovation Challenge within the Horizon project KitNewCare, for sustainable kidney care!
Join in and get engaged in the concept of the Innovation Challenge (IC), as well as in some of the innovations currently on the market. The IC itself will take place on 16 October 2024, as a side-event to the 6th Nordic Conference on Sustainable Healthcare.
Objectives of the pre-IC:
· Present and promote the IC concept
· Raise awareness on the cross-sectoral impact of KitNewCare
· Attract the industry and different sectors that have the potential of contributing to the IC
Date: 13 June 2024
Time: 10.00 – 11.30 CET
The IC represents the convergence of a) the scouting and identification of technologies, b) the engagement with other sectors within healthcare, and c) the engagement with other industries outside of the healthcare sector. This convergence aims to identify technologies and solutions that have been implemented in other sectors than healthcare, and that if adapted can serve a sustainability impact in the framework of KitNewCare.
