Join us for IdeaJAM: Come and learn about the opportunities and challenge in rural healthcare delivery, and try your hand at developing a new solution to this pressing issue.

On March 28th from 12pm-4pm, we’re hosting IdeaJAM—an interactive ideation event designed to ignite creative thinking around improving healthcare access in rural communities. Rural populations often face barriers such as limited healthcare facilities, long travel distances, and provider shortages. New technologies, community resources, and medical expertise can be employed in innovative ways to provide transformative opportunities to bridge these gaps.

The afternoon will feature an insightful panel discussion with a complimentary lunch, and dedicated time to collaborate and brainstorm with fellow students, practitioners, and community members. Participants will join randomized teams, and work together to develop a new, innovative concept. Each team will give a short pitch of their idea for the chance to win a $500 cash prize.

This is your chance to connect, ideate, and help shape the future of rural healthcare!

For CAMD and Bouvé Students: We will reimburse travel (bus or train) for the first 30 students to register and attend. Please note that you are a CAMD student on the registration form.
