Since the onset of the pandemic, everything from our exercise routines to medical check-ups have been affected by physical distancing and lockdowns. In response, digital health has emerged as a leading area of growth and investment. Health Innovation Initiative (HI2) is excited to bring you a platform to learn, discuss, and connect with people on recent advancements in digital health innovation!

Join us for the 4th edition of our annual Health Startup Day and hear from speakers who have integrated research experience with their current professions. They will be discussing trends and challenges in digital health innovation and the role of scientific research in its success.

Agenda

The first hour of the event will be in the form of a panel discussion between diverse speakers, featuring topics centered around aspects of digital health innovation.

The second hour of the event is reserved for networking. Several forms will be made available - divided by discussion topic and hosted by a discussion facilitator. Join us for interesting conversations, ask questions and form new connections.

The panel discussion portion of this event will be conducted in English, with subtitles available. Both French and English may be used in the networking breakout sessions.

HSD21 aims to:
