Sometimes a single weekend becomes the moment when something bigger begins. Ideas meet people, and people meet the courage to build what didn’t exist before. These moments stay with us — reminding us that innovation is born not only in labs, but also in conversations, curiosity, trying, and believing that things can be better.

If you’d like to carry that feeling a little further and explore the challenges our health system is facing today, take a look here:
