Open Mind Symposium
On September 17th, all granted proposals of the Convergence of Health & Tech Open Mind call 2021 will present themselves in an openly accessible, matchmaking symposium.
This hybrid event will celebrate the first convergence projects in an informative pitchy way. And since this event has open access, feel free to invite anyone you know to join. Via this webpage we will inform you in the next couple of days about the event, the program and the calls in particular.
Program
This event will have plenary pitch rounds within their themes. After the pitches, a short Q&A session will take place. Feel free to ask questions via the chat. The plenary Q&A will continue in a virtual breakout room. The pitchers and other members of their team will show up in the breakout rooms for further discussion.
