Innovation Strategy

Innovation Strategy

The Pillar Centre for Transformative Healthcare will serve as a catalyst in shaping a culture of MedTech Innovation within MMUH and the broader healthcare community. By prioritising activities that incorporate creativity, design thinking, and providing an environment for people to question, observe, network, and experiment, we aim to foster an innovative working environment.

If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.
Henry Ford
We aim to achieve this goal by:
  • Maintaining the status quo of keeping the patient at the forefront of our minds whenever we endeavor to innovate
  • Promoting skills in observation, problem solving and creativity, through onsite support and arranged activities, such as Health Tech Design Sprints
  • Liaising with our academic partners, exchanging and sharing knowledge and technical know-how, with the objective of co-creating novel solutions
  • Placing strong emphasis on scientific rigour and evidence based practice
  • Providing education around the Regulatory, Developmental, Intellectual Property (IP) and Commercialisation pathway in bringing a new medical technology to market
  • Working with Ireland’s well established Health Tech ecosystem, providing a conduit between clinical and industrial expertise.
