2022年5月26日星期四, Manchester Digital hosted its latest Emerging Technology Forum at the Manchester Technology Centre, our first event focused on healthtech.
Greater Manchester has established itself as an international hub for healthtech and medtech innovation in recent years, so it was fantastic to welcome guests for an afternoon of networking and talks delivered by industry experts on some of the work being carried out in this sector here in Greater Manchester.
本次活动是由 Bruntwood科技 and featured guest speakers:
- 大卫罗杰森, Experience Design Director, 简单明了的
- Gergana伊万诺娃, Founder/CEO, NanoGraft
- Owen Williams, Director of Technology, 西北地区的
- 尼克McCafferty, Business Innovation Manager, Bruntwood科技
尼克McCafferty, Business Innovation Manager at Bruntwood科技 began the afternoon's session, with an overview of the healthtech sector across Greater Manchester and the ways that Bruntwood科技 work with healthtech companies such as Levitex, Cancertain and Bright BioTech.
Beginning the afternoon's presentations around Supercharging Healthtech, 大卫罗杰森, Director of Product at experience design and engineering company 简单明了的 discussed how scaling up can present opportunities and challenges to healthcare businesses, and shared insights into the work they recently did with Preventx, who offer remote sexual health testing, as they rethought their clinical and sercive user experiences whilst laying the foundations for accerlerated growth.
David also shared 简单明了的's observations on designing for scale in healthcare:
- You’re designing for overlapping ecosystems
- A clear vision and set of values helps guide decision making
- If someone using the platform all day, everyday - you’re designing an environment, not a journey
- Build trust through transparency, inclusivity and empowerment
- Investment in decoupling and standardisation can accelerate scaling and enable innovation
下一个, Gergana伊万诺娃, NanoGraft的创始人兼首席执行官, discussed the innovative work they do to support lower limp amputees and the importance of listening to patients.
“The future of healthtech innovation keeps the patient and their needs at the heart of all operations.”
Our final talk of the afternoon was delivered by Owen Williams of North West EHealth. Owen shared how they are changing the way clinical trials are run through their two software products, ConneXon和FARSITE, which are making trials safer, 更快、更包容.
