      Medtech Accelerator Health Hack - Patient Safety
        03 May - 05:30 PM
        Chelmsford, United Kingdom
      Timing of Hackathon Please be aware full venue and parking details will be confirmed via registration. Thursday May 3rd - Day 1: Anglia Ruskin University Campus, Chelmsford, Essex: 5:30pm onwards, expected finish 8:30pm Approx. Friday May 4th - Day 2: Anglia Ruskin University Campus, Chelmsford, Essex: 8:30 start, expected finish 5:00pm. Overview The Medtech Accelerator Health Hack programme is a series of three workshops designed to engage a wide community of stakeholders, focused on stimulating innovation within the NHS, through the identification and development of innovative new products and services with the potential to meet unmet clinical needs and generate commercial benefit. Latest Event Theme: Patient Safety  Patient safety is an emotive and currently high-profile subject, encompassing a wide range of points on the care pathway. We are seeking novel medical technology solutions (medical devices, equipment, diagnostics, medical software, IT platforms, mobile apps) that work to prevent errors in healthcare that can cause harm to patients across hospitals, primary care, community care, ambulatory care, mental health services and home care. What are we Looking for?Idea or Problem Owners (Innovators)  We are aiming to engage 6-10 individuals/teams from NHS organisations in the region to participate in each of our events. We are looking for Idea Owners with innovations in the broad area of medical technology (devices, diagnostics, software and eHealth) that meet unmet clinical needs. Such innovations will be primarily based upon NHS intellectual property (IP) that show the potential to create new company opportunities within the East of England. Problem Owners who don’t yet have a solution for their unmet need are also welcome.  Support ActorsWhat are we Looking for? Some of the Idea or Problem Owners may be from purely clinical backgrounds with no substantial experience of product design or hardware/software development, so they may need assistance in developing their idea and guidance in assessing the market opportunity, identifying the best development approach, selecting other delivery partners, quantifying the development costs and subsequent funding/investment needs and developing a sound commercialisation strategy. As such, we will be seeking to recruit the following participants: Clinical stakeholders, subject-matter experts and other NHS staff Software/hardware developers Academics/researchers Regulatory experts/consultants Business/marketing/strategy consultants What will Happen at the Event? Idea Owners will pitch their ideas or challenge areas, on the day, to an audience of support actors (designers, hardware/software developers and product development engineers along with business and marketing specialists). They will then form into teams in order to ‘workshop’ the ideas into a more complete proposal, which they will then pitch to a panel of judges. The Idea Owners will need to provide clinical/strategic/operational guidance during this process in order to ensure that the proposed solution addresses the problem identified and meets the twin challenges of improving quality and reducing cost.  Expected Outcomes  The judges will pick one or more of the ideas to go forward and pitch their idea to the Medtech Accelerator Investment Panel, with a chance of winning up to £125,000 of funding to develop the idea. The remaining projects will all be offered the opportunity of further mentoring and support from HEE & the EAHSN.

            Blockchain events are great but you feel like you want to actually get your hands on and work on actual blockchain solutions for the greater good? The GBA Hackcathon serie is just for you!   Every two month we will organise specific use case events and will give you a chance to build a blockchain solution for it.   You can join alone or register your team, we will complete the teams on the day.   THE PRINCIPLE:   Each Hackathon will be composed of our previous monthly meetup themes.   Teams of 3-4 people will race over one day to solve a Government specific issue using Blockchain technology.   Our first Hackathon will be about Supply chain and will occur on the 30th of April   At the end of the Challenge, teams will pitch in 5 minutes their solutions - the top 3 teams will be announced on the day.   REWARDS:   Top 3 teams:   The top 3 teams will be invited to defy the Counsel of Nodes and present their solution to a prestigious panel composed of Government representative, Blockchain and Industry Experts which will pick the winning team.   A 5 minutes video featuring the 3 finalists will be produced from that shooting and released on social medias and in our YouTube channel   Winning team: - Introduction to our numerous governments and institutions contacts across the world - A free spot for the team lead in our annual Conference at the end of this year   - Winning team will also be invited to pitch their solution on our GBA monthly events.

Will do the first on over one on the 30th of April. We will scale the hackathons over several days over time. Will Coding be necessary? Coding will not be mandatory, we will encourage the teams to go as far as possible in the tokenomics and blockchain design to have a robust solution. Any background is welcome to join. You will need to be comfortable that you can deliver the solution presented if a government is interested. The top 3 teams selected for the crypto dragons den will have a few days to polish their projects. More coding might be worth doing at this stage as the teams will be on the grill with a panel of highly knowledgeable industry and blockchain influencers
