January 31, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Take an active role in improving Ottawa healthcare problems – it all starts with this event!

From an application that deals with wait times and improving preventative health care for women to a smarter post-operative knee brace and sleep apnea diagnostic tools, Hacking Health is an initiative that brings innovation to Ottawa’s healthcare system.

We invite Ottawa’s leading healthcare professionals, technology creators and entrepreneurs to take part in the Health Innovation Program Launch, Wednesday, January 31, 2018, at Shopify. This launch is an opportunity to get inspired by spectacular forces in the healthcare industry, meet with individuals who want to make a difference and build solutions for healthcare problems.
