This meeting aims to give surgeons the tools to take an innovative idea through from initial development to implementation. Along with lectures on the reasons why hospitals, departments and individuals should be encouraged to develop new ideas for the good of their patients.
Further lectures will identify to clinicians and managers the institutions that can support this process i.e. innovation services and hubs, research design services and Research and development departments.
Following on from this, real examples of surgeons who have succeeded in developing their ideas will give the event a realistic and practical perspective on what works and what does not, thereby allowing delegates to avoid similar mistakes and be more successful innovators.
