Synopsis:The COVID -19 crisis has brought about unprecedented disruption especially in the healthcare industry. It has forced Medtech companies to reimagine their strategies and realign their businesses. This has catapulted designing for the healthcare industry to the centre stage and will lead to a far-reaching impact on how healthcare will evolve at a leapfrogging pace. This is a perfect opportunity to discuss the trends we see emerging on paradigm shift in user behaviour towards health, acceleration of development timelines, flexible manufacturing, supply chain management etc. About Pratyusha:Pratyusha is a co-founder of Nemocare wellness. She is an Industrial Designer with an electronics engineering background, Pratyusha had experiences that have made her sensitive towards needless neonatal and maternal deaths. With her efforts towards solving the problem, she is perfecting the art of designing life-saving solutions which are accessible, affordable and highly accurate. Her stories are not only moving but also insightful. Nemocare has developed a patented IoT enabled wearable on the newborn that continuously monitors the necessary vital parameters used to detect Apnea, Hypothermia and other distress conditions.

Reimagining MedTech Design in a post Pandemic Era

Synopsis:One of the oldest and the biggest debates in the design community has been that form and function. What's overlooked, is the discussion around relevance and choice. We need to identify what is more suited for the purpose, or is more relevant - to the business, to the people, the environment, to the society, or simply to the job at hand. The onus lies with the designer to make the right choice that is most relevant to the job, and this can only be achieved by cross-pollination of ideas with other disciplines. The future of design is thus acknowledging the intersectionality between design and other professions such as arts, business, engineering, law, medicine, biology, finance, or any other professions, to provide relevant and meaningful solutions. About Nachiket:Nachiket is the co-founder of Coeo Labs, an award-winning Med-Tech startup working in the field of emergency and critical care. During his stint at Coeo Labs, Nachiket and his team developed, patented, and commercialized two novel technologies that are now saving the lives of thousands of Indians.Nachiket now resides in Toronto, Canada, after an exit from Coeo Labs and works at Grand Challenges Canada, an impact investment organization as an Investment Manager building and shaping the organization’s Humanitarian portfolio by finding innovations solving problems in the areas of Energy, Healthcare, Information access, and Water, Hygiene and Sanitation (WASH),in conflict-affected geographies.
