About this event

Event image

Health Innovation Hub Ireland's Spark Ignite is the only staff-facing, bottom up, innovation competition available to the 115,000+ HSE employees. Its mission is to enable HSE staff to validate unmet needs in healthcare, determine if a market or need exists for their proposed solution, product, or service to meet that need, and to support the further development of those ideas.

This year over 150 applicants submitted their ideas for review to win a spot on a mini-accelerator course. From this 36 finalists were chosen in total from Cork, Dublin and Galway. These finalists were brought through this process of developing their pitch for their idea.

Now, each of the finalists has to pitch in front of an experienced panel of judges in their region.

The winners will receive funding to develop their ideas and will receive on-going mentorship from HIHI.
