Over the past few decades, medical innovation has made great strides to improve medical management and hospital processes. However, despite such advances, challenges remain in the transition from technology innovations to clinical adoption in healthcare.
To keep Singapore at the forefront of clinical innovation and improve the adoption rates of potentially life-saving health technologies, the National Health Innovation Centre (NHIC) is launching a Clinical Innovation and Adoption Initiative to nurture promising healthtech projects for implementation and adoption across the healthcare clusters in Singapore.
We are pleased to invite you to the virtual launch of the Clinical Innovation and Adoption Initiative.
Dr Cheong Wei Yang, Deputy Secretary (Technology), Ministry of Health, will be the Guest of Honour for the event. The programme appended below for your reference.
