SMB-meeting Health & High Tech cross-overs


Date: November 4th, 2021
Registration: 15:30
Program:16:00-17:00
Networking/drinks/bites:17:00-18:00
Location: Novio Tech Campus Nijmegen, building M, Meet&Greet area (Directions)
 
Nijmegen is the city of healthcare and High Tech. In many cases these are quite separate worlds. Healthcare is about care, drugs discovery, medical devices etc. and High Tech in Nijmegen is about chip production for sectors like automotive.
 
But there certainly is also an important cross-over between these sectors where technologies from the semiconductor industry are used in healthcare. For example in lab-on-a-chip  and organs-on-a-chip development, diagnostics through photonics and hyperthermia treatment trough radio frequencies.
 
In this SMB meeting we have rounded up a group of companies and researchers who address precisely these types of cross-overs.
 
Program
Hans van Bokhoven from Radboudumc will talk about the development of organs-on-a-chip that will influence treatment options and drug development.
 
Klaus Werner from PinkRF will talk about the potential of RF technologies in the treatment of cancer through hyperthermia.
 
Waander van Heerde from Enzyre will talk about their development to determine blood clotting factors with lab-on-a-chip technology.
 
And Peter Harmsma from Delta Diagnostics will explain how they use photonics for health diagnostics.
    
Hybrid event
We expect the RIVM guidelines will allow us to host a physical meeting at Novio Tech Campus in Nijmegen with networking/drinks/snacks afterwards. The event will be streamed online as well. 
   
Good to know
Presentations are in English & the entrance is free (registration upfront is needed though). We welcome new guests, so please feel free to pass on this invitation to relevant people in your network!
   
We look forward to meeting you!

Corporates need startups to accelerate in new business areas and and startups need corporates for the same reason. Yet it is not always easy for startups and corporates to work together and both parties need to bridge the gap between their different worlds. A good understanding of the different aspects of successful corporate-startup collaboration is necessary to be successful in the long run.

Corporate Venturing Network and the Erasmus University have developed a tool which provides both corporates and startups insights into these critical success factors for joint innovating: www.readytoteamup.com.

In this interactive session Corina Kuiper from Corporate Venturing Network will elaborate on a successful startup/corporate collaboration. And Karin Struijs from HAN will inform us on the new education & innovation initiative Katalysator.

Presentations are in English and the entrance is free. We welcome new guests, so please feel free to pass on this invitation to relevant people in your network!

We are looking forward to meeting you on December 14!
