Over the course of the two days, participants will work in teams to devise proposals that address this issue, harnessing technological innovation to meet the needs of healthcare professionals and patients.

The winning team will receive a a prize of 3,000 euros and will have the opportunity to fast-track their project for six months at InnomakersLAB, the hub run by Pfizer in partnership with Wayra, Telefónica’s initiative dedicated to promoting innovative projects. You will also be able to take part in the selection process for a two-week stay in Boston, through the Richi LifeSciences programme run by the Richi Foundation.
