About event

HealthTech Summit pairs hackathon teams with clinicians and biomedical engineers tackling real workflow problems. Pick one of three tracks — clinical decision support, wearables and remote monitoring, or surgical analytics — and ship a credible prototype by Sunday evening. All challenges come with anonymised datasets prepared by partner hospitals. Hand-picked clinical mentors will spend the weekend with each team, and the strongest projects move into a six-week residency programme.

Challenges
Surgical Workflow Replay from OR Video

Annotate raw operating-room video with phase boundaries (incision, anastomosis, closure) so the surgical team can review timing and tooling decisions afterwards. Faces and identifying markers …

Symptom Triage Assistant for Clinic Intake

Build a conversational triage tool for primary-care clinics. Patients describe symptoms in plain language; the tool produces a prioritised differential and a concise hand-off note …

Wearable-Based Cardiac Event Detection

Given continuous ECG streams from a consumer wearable, detect atrial fibrillation episodes with high recall while keeping false-alarm rate workable for daily wear. Submissions should …
