Learn to create and act on tomorrow's health!

In partnership with ICE (Innovation Center for Entrepreneurship) and Epitech, BoostUrCAreer organized its first e-health Creathon, from May 20 to 22. 45 students and doctoral candidates from Université Côte d'Azur and Epitech got together to take up the challenge set by 3 associations - to innovate in order to solve the problems encountered by patients suffering from diabetes (AFD06), by young caregivers (ARA, Accompagnement et répit des aidants), and as part of sexual prevention schemes (#IELS).

During two very intensive days, all the participants, divided into teams, were coached in Design Thinking to better understand the needs of their target, to identify opportunities for solutions in line with the technological trends of the health sector and to design a solution that meets the needs of users.

The first prize and "coup de coeur" of the jury, awarded by the city councillor of Nice in charge of health, was won by APPELS:

a kit allowing diabetics in white areas (areas without internet connection) to access network coverage and benefit from medical monitoring
