Health Innovators’ Meetups

The Health Innovators' Meetup is a monthly series of In-Person informal meetings brought to you by the Health Innovation Hub in collaboration with Applied Pharmaceutical Innovation. This monthly in-person event takes place every second Thursday.

It brings together health innovators, researchers, entrepreneurs, leaders, service providers, talent, and enthusiasts to converse on human health innovation related topics.

Every month, there is a different topic and a different panel. This meetup provides an opportunity to expand on the innovation stories happening here in Edmonton and also highlights the challenges our innovators and entrepreneurs are facing.
