2. Welcome to the Healthcare Innovation Summit!
In Healthcare, the core customer is your patient, without whom
Healthcare would not exist.
Although your most important stakeholder, the patient’s involvement is
extremely limited. Reaching out to patients and gaining vital information
helps you take better decisions. It improves consultancy time and
generates better outcomes. If implemented cohesively, it reduces cost and
improves wellness. This can only be achieved when stakeholders engage
with each other over a common platform. To connect them healthcare is
now digital and engages continuously.
IIR Middle East has therefore chosen the Healthcare Innovation
Summit as a platform to understand and identify:
•
•
•
•
Where innovation is really needed
What benefits have others gained
Who should lead it
How it could be implemented within your institution
The best and brightest connected minds will converge during the four
day Summit at the Dusit Thani Hotel, Dubai on 26 – 29 January 2014. The
pre and post conference workshop led by Aspen Institute and Duke
Medicine respectively, will empower delegates with an implementation
plan to engage their patient population and take better decisions.
It is an interactive, debate heavy and decisive gathering.
You make a difference to healthcare and we want you to be there!

Implementing Innovation
Wednesday, 29 January 2014
Innovation is much more than coming up with a great idea; it is a continuous
process that spans problem identification, idea generation, selection, and
most importantly, implementation, evaluation, and scale. Great ideas cannot
be actualised if they are not implemented, and sometimes, even an existing
idea can become innovative in how it is implemented.
This workshop will provide participants with the knowledge and tools
to support an innovation lifecycle and frameworks for implementing
innovation. Several use cases will highlight specific challenges to
implementing innovation, including design, communications, culture,
financing, and scalability. The discussion will encompass a broad approach
to innovation in health and healthcare, including innovations in technology,
business models, and workforce.
Learning objectives:
• Understand the capabilities necessary to implement innovation
• Learn from successes and failures in scaling innovations in health and
healthcare
• Access tools and frameworks to help organisations support the
implementation of innovation
Workshop leaders:
Krishna Udayakumar, MD, MBA,
Head of Global Innovation, Duke Medicine and Executive Director,
International Partnership for Innovative Healthcare Delivery (IPIHD)
Lisa Bourget, MBA,
Director of Strategy and Partnership Development
Duke Medicine Global

Workshop attendees will be eligible for a certificate of
