INNOVATION AT IT'S BEST. The 'Transforing Care' event focused on enabling collaboration, learning and relationship building, in order to create a space for innovative (yet desirable) outcomes. Together, a wide array of attendees -- including clinicians, researchers, patients, family members, industry partners, companies, technologists and innovators -- contributed to a truly exciting and informative event.

"Transforming Care provided a platform for innovators and practitioners across the health-care system to share ideas, learn from one another, develop our innovation skills, and create connections to address persistent and emerging challenges in our health-care system."

Educational Panel Discussions illuminated challenge and opportunity spaces, while expert Keynote Speakers showcased new and timely research; Exhibitions featured cutting edge innovation in health-care, while Interactive Workshops grounded theoretical knowledge in practical learning.

Chaordic Design had the pleasure of releasing a sold-out Design for Emergence workshop, featuring the ‘Design for Adoption’ canvas (download it free to use anytime). The canvas enabled an impromptu, collaborative health-care team to quickly and effectively share collective expertise, gel around a common challenge, unearth and dispel biases, as well as to form shared understanding (and language) in order to problem-solve. Each team was able to go through the full Design for Emergence canvas, and ultimately arrive at innovative ideas for complex health-care challenges.

We would like to extend a warm thank you to our esteemed participants, as well as the stellar SickKids organizing team, who truly offered a tremendously valuable event – thank you!
