The Innovation Forum Manchester aims to celebrate Manchester's role as a hub in Precision Medicine and Digital Health using its strengths in life sciences and technology.
Come along on the 22 August for an evening of insights from thought leaders from around the North West. Additionally, exciting start-ups in the field will also get a chance to pitch their innovative ideas. We encourage anyone with an interest to attend, connect and learn about how the synergy of Precision and Digital Health are set to revolutionise how we experience healthcare.
The Innovation Forum’s main goal is to bridge the gap between academic science and industry and to support scientists and entrepreneurs to deliver the breakthroughs of tomorrow. Our global network connects academics, start-ups, professionals and policy makers to drive forward innovations to impact people's lives.
