Hi all, the questions in the slides may have been iterated on between when this was uploaded and now, but here’s my take from a health-tech innovator’s perspective:
- The benefit of such a platform to an innovator as a channel to interested practitioners, users, and researchers is immense. (audience)
- MoH can play a role in curating content of the platform, to help protect practitioners and support innovations which make real impact, or have the potential to do so. Curation will help facilitate the conversation between technology provider and health practitioner by reducing some of the uncertainty practitioners may have with using new technology, and therefore help to engage more practitioners in using new technologies.
- Being able to establish the stage of a project, and to have members of the industry express interest in projects at each stage would be a key point of value.
- For innovators it provides a source of interested and validated contacts,
- For practitioners it could provide a list of projects relevant to their field or interest, and available ways to become involved, either as collaborator, adviser, customer, etc.
Thanks all, some great content coming out of this group and looking forward to the next stage.
