The DayOne Health Hack: Data Future

Your chance to transform the healthcare industry.

We assemble diverse, interdisciplinary teams of experts, practitioners, and outside-the-box thinkers to tackle specific challenges in defined environments. DayOne Health Hack: Data Future embodies this collaborative approach to innovation. Champions for health, our patient and health care professional mentors will guide you to better outcomes and ideation by sharing real-world insights. This is your chance to collaborate with other innovative thinkers to tackle real-world healthcare problems. Our non-code event empowers everyone to contribute and develop creative solutions.

By participating in this event, individuals can put their ideas into action, developing practical and creative solutions to real-world healthcare problems. The event’s philosophy is encapsulated in the motto “Just do it”, emphasizing the importance of taking bold and decisive action to drive meaningful change in the healthcare industry. It is a “non-code” event, so everyone can contribute to solving real challenges that patients and physicians face.

Expected outcome: 

Together with our Champions (patients and physicians) and mentors, we identified 4 particular challenges around data in healthcare.  

The team will need to focus on one challenge to work on during this Health Hack.  The outcome should be a proof of concept (essay) and a pitch deck that outlines the value proposition of a particular digital health solution created and showcases its viability in addressing the chosen challenge.  Building a small-scale model or simulation that demonstrates how the solution would work in practice is welcomed but not required.  The evaluation will be based on the criteria of innovation, business impact, UI/UX interface, and feasibility.
