Engine Shed Event Series: Healthtech roundtable
Healthtech innovators are invited to apply to attend a peer-led roundtable to enable shared learning, problem solving and networking.
Engine Shed are thrilled to be partnering with SETsquared Bristol to provide an opportunity for healthtech founders and/or their C-suites to facilitate shared learning, problem solving and skill sharing with real tangible outcomes, as well as to build and strengthen connections within the cluster.
This roundtable is organised by Arne Scott, CTO Rosa Biotech, Yolanda Hill, Business Development Manager Neuronostics and Paul Forster, Business Pre-Incubation Manager SETsquared Bristol.
The roundtable follows SETsquared Bristol’s panel discussion: Healthtech products – from innovation to implementation event at Bristol Technology Festival (see blog for more info here), and subsequent cluster socials.
These events brought together disparate parts of the local healthtech cluster and helped to identify key areas for discussion, development and exploration, and now it’s time to take these forward in this session.
We encourage participants to bring ideas, so if there are any topics or questions you want included on the agenda, please email paul.forster@setsquared.co.uk.
