We are pleased to invite you to our next Canterbury Health Innovation Networking Event on Wednesday 26 August, commencing at 5:30 pm.

This event is open to all members of the Canterbury Health Innovation community and provides an opportunity to connect with colleagues, expand your network, and hear about topics of current interest across the health and innovation sectors.

For this session, we will be highlighting the recent announcement that University of Canterbury and the University of Otago are supporting the Te Titoki Mataora programme to grow med tech research translation and commercialisation capability across the South Island.

Te Titoki Mataora supports research and capability development for researchers and clinicians. We will explore what this programme means for the South Island health innovation ecosystem, how individuals can access and engage with it, and its role within the broader initiative to strengthen the pathway from research discovery through to commercialisation and real-world impact.

We encourage all members of the community to join us for networking and what promises to be an informative session.
