HealthTech Innovation Awards 2022 – Celebrating Innovation

The Health Tech Innovation Awards 2022, now in their 10th year, highlighted the many valuable contributions HealthTech has brought to healthcare in Ireland.

These awards are a platform for?manufacturers, distributors, medical device and digital companies?to showcase the state-of-the-art medical health technologies brought to the market and to demonstrate the positive impact they have for patients and the healthcare system and David was delighted to be asked to deliver the keynote speech on the night.

The Awards have grown significantly in the past few years with entries coming from?hospitals, researchers, medtech entrepreneurs and industry. The comprehensive list of categories identified the?highest level of achievement across?the healthcare sector and recognised those who have excelled in the areas of Healthcare Collaboration, Diagnostics for Prevention, Best Indigenous Healthcare Start-up & eHealth Digital Health. Other categories include Indigenous SME Most Innovative Product, Outstanding Healthcare Professional, Most Transformative Impact, Excellence in Supply & Best in Sustainability.

Speaking at the Black Tie event David focused his keynote on building innovative growth through technology. He engaged the entire audience in a dialogue that challenged them to think about the role of innovation?and how the decisions that they make have an impact on everything that they do and how they can motivate, inspire and engage their team to build a discretionary effort.

In this session David proved that teams that think differently can can truly disrupt the sector through technology, through innovation and through a re-imagination of what's possible.

In what was an incredibly interactive exchange, David spent much of his time off the stage and in the audience, interacting the crowd and ensuring that everyone present was engaged, inspired and left with insights they could take back to the office to help them innovate, ideate and motivate.

David said: “With so many leading businesses and individuals from the health sector in attendance this event was a real pleasure to speak at. I passionately believe that what separates great organisations from the merely good organisations is discretionary effort, that is, whether a person or a team or a department chooses to do the 1%, 3% or ?5% extra that helps move the needle on the results and on their performance.

“The audience totally grasped that sentiment and there was so much energy and vitality in the room that it made for a really impactful session, not just for them but also for me.”
