As well as speakers, THE FIX will feature a rich day of activities, including inspiring stories, expert workshops, product demonstrations, musical performances, art, a participant-led “unconference”, tours of the Harwell Science Campus, a startup pitch competition, speed networking, an evening party — the hottest event on campus… and much more!
By invitation.
You’ll be guided through the festival, and will get to explore the festival campus, with health-tech product demonstrations, bespoke networking opportunities, and more. Full details to follow in the coming weeks.
A lively, informed, engaging and tightly curated session of 10-minute keynote talks, from key figures in health-tech. Full details to follow in the coming weeks on our Speakers page.
Your ticket will include a lunch voucher, for a nutritious and tasty vegetarian picnic lunch. But we want you to make new friends, so we’ll redeem vouchers only when presented in groups of at least 4 (which means you’ll get to meet fellow THE FIX participants!)
THE FIX‘s “unconference” sessions are driven entirely by you: over 40-minute sessions, participants run sessions that they’ve proposed, including workshops, discussions, talks, science demos, or whatever you’re excited by. This is our “open-source” part of the day, tapping into the knowledge, creativity and thoughtfulness of the crowd. In the morning, you can propose your session with a marker pen on a whiteboard which is divided into 40-minute slots in 8 locations on the festival site. You can then pitch for an audience from the main stage before lunch. Surprise us! AND Come and experience our Six-Minute Ideas sessions, where festival-goers get a short moment to share an idea, experience, recommendation, provocation in a quick-fire against-the-clock format. No slides, just a punchy, lively, fast-paced idea. We’ll schedule these short idea-pitches in advance and give people a time-slot, and we’ll provide a moderator for this stage. AND Hear real-world challenges from NHS leaders, then team up with fellow innovators to design, shape, and pitch bold solutions. This is your chance to spark real change, improving patient care, reducing costs, and building collaborations that deliver impact beyond the day.
You have a choice this hour: Be a dragon and evaluate five-minute pitches from 10 selected health-tech startups that are currently fundraising. AND Meet some of the key decision-makers in health-tech for a relaxed and open Ask Me Anything session.
Join a moderated discussion led by an expert. Topics include ‘Integrating medtech: real-world lessons, challenges and “hacks”‘, ‘How not to fail as a startup working with the health system’, and ‘Trends and innovations in fem-tech’.
You’ll have a choice of 40-minute workshops to participate in, led by VOYAGERS with specialist skills to share. There will also be speed-networking sessions, based on participants’ mutual interests (which we’ll collect in advance).
Enjoy a wide range of entertainment and continue networking until later in the evening. Do you want to perform? Tell david@voyagers.io
