Are you tired of panels and keynotes? Well, so are we! At SXSW 2020, we want to connect entertainment with education. After a successfull Healthtech Innovation Day at SXSW2019 where we inspired you in a traditional way, we decided to try out a bolder concept.
We will play HealthTech Jeopardy on stage at Berlin Saloon - an official SXSW 2020 venue !
How does it work? We will have five categories - just like the trend topics you usually get information on by keynote speakers and panelists - and 4 healthcare experts that battle to win the highest amount of money for answering some questions on healthcare trends across the world correctly. The trickier the question, the higher the amount - just like in old-fashioned Jeopardy you might have seen on TV.
What topics are we going to cover?
We will explore the healthcare trends in Berlin, Barcelona, Paris, Antwerp, Stockholm and more - and of course Texas! Europe is a booming startup hub - and yes, we are Europeans. The opportunities are endless. One industry, however, that is experiencing a much-needed rejuvenation and disruption right now is Healthcare. Did you know:Germany’s new "Act to Improve Healthcare Provision through Digitalisation and Innovation (DVG)" has opened up new freedoms for healthcare innovators.Are you ready of the new EU-MDR's deadline in May? Do you actually know it?Have you ever looked into the groundbreaking healtchare innovation coming out of IMEC in Antwerp - yes, Belgium!Have you ever considered exploring the data-friendly healtchare ecosystem in sunny Barcelona?Learn how international healthcare startups can enter the European market.
