Entitled:
“Leveraging technologies for affordable and accessible healthcare”
Abstract:
Increasing access to affordable healthcare is one of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. However, the standard ways of product development will not be sufficient to reach these goals by 2030. The speakers draw upon experiences from their own career as well as academic research to showcase alternative hands-on approaches to leverage the benefits of technology enabled innovation within a constraint-based setting.
