This will be your opportunity to check-in with peers from across the health and life science sector, sharing ideas and stories about the inspiring work taking place.

Join us for a special HealthTech Huddle.

March 17th is St. Patrick’s Day and we’re partnering with the UK’s Northwest Healthtec Cluster on their monthly ‘Huddle’. Join us for the online huddle on the 15th March to learn more about the UK and Ireland market, and potential opportunities to collaborate in particular across Digital Health. This will be your opportunity to check-in with peers from across the health and life science sector, sharing ideas and stories about the inspiring work taking place.

Representatives from the Northwest Healthtech Cluster, the Connected Health and Wellbeing Cluster at DKIT, and the Digital Health Industries Cluster at GMIT, will give a short overview of the opportunities in the respective markets, and to support  members to develop international sales or partnerships.

The Irish Connected Health & Wellbeing Cluster and the Digital Health Industries Cluster are both new Enterprise Ireland-funded clusters which encourage and facilitate increased collaboration between industry (indigenous and FDI), academia, healthcare providers, and enterprise support agencies.

Everyone has the opportunity to participate either through:-

  • Listening
  • Presenting

To present, we have two formats – a 5 minute spotlight talk (please contact us if you would like to be invited to give a spotlight talk as these are limited) or a number of 90 second pitchers; we want to hear who you are, what your organisation is doing and what you are looking for to support health and life sciences growth and innovation.

From developing cutting edge R&D to scaling health and life science enterprises, we want to hear from you. So get those coffee’s ready for this huddle and register today as pitchers are limited (you will be notified a week in advance of the pitching request outcome).

The event is free but you need to reserve your place HERE
