Medic Footprints are very excited to bring you an opportunity to build a health tech startup team from the ground up!

Startup Weekend Health London is the first Startup Weekend dedicated exclusively to Health in the UK.

We are all patients and friends and family of patients and we all have ideas on how to improve the healthcare system in the UK. We want you to bring your ideas for helping patients, caregivers and the NHS provide better, more efficient care. Even if you don’t have an idea, come work with others who do to build what could be the next great solution for the NHS.

Lets build the future of Healthcare!

• Do you seek knowledge and other like-minded people interested in the Healthcare system?
• Are a medical professional with a new idea who wants to develop it and help its patients?
• Are you a business professional interested in the new Medtech revolution?
• Are a developer or a UX specialist who wants to make a difference?
• Do you want to get hands on and learn by doing about business design, marketing research and developing a prototype?
• Do you want to get mentoring from insiders, clinical specialists, technological geniuses and business gurus?
• Do you want to start building your future and help change the world in just 54 hours?
• Do you have an idea you’d like to pursue or a problem you’d like to solve but don’t know where to start or who to start with?

Techstars Startup Weekend is the place to look for a team, create a prototype of your idea, validate your business idea, and receive feedback from experienced entrepreneurs, all in one weekend.

What do you need to bring?

Lots of energy! You’ll pitch your own idea or listen to others, then vote on the most interesting ideas and form teams with diverse skill sets. You can come with friends, but you’ll get the full experience if you participate in separate teams. Remember, it’s all about the team.

Your idea should be something you have not previously worked on. The idea you pitch and the problem you set out to solve can span social, educational, financial, environmental, or other issues. Over the course of the weekend you’ll be challenged to create a prototype of your MVP, or minimum viable product, that fits the needs of your target customer. You’ll get feedback, iterate, and likely pivot your approach entirely! Important: You cannot have worked previously on your idea.

Techstars Startup Weekend is a full weekend long experience. Your ticket includes:

7 full (and delicious) meals over the course of the weekend
Benefits and discounts from our global partners
One-on-one time with amazing mentors
A new network of developers, designers, and entrepreneurs eager, like you, to change the world.
All the internet and coffee you can consume.

Welcome to the world of MBTI:

Understand the inner workings of your mind and behaviour using the world’s most popular personality type theory

Find out more
Have you ever wondered what makes you tick and drives your behaviour? Are you stressed? Perhaps you are exploring a new career or challenge at work and wondering whether it is a good fit for you?

Have you wondered why you or others sometimes behave in an ‘illogical’ or ‘irrational’ way? How can personality influence our actions and how can we predict these behaviours?

What if you could understand the thought processes of others, communicate better with them, be able to harness their strengths and build high performing teams?

We spend so much of our lives doing things that others want us to do or conforming to the world as we know it, without knowing what drives us and what our talents are. How can we go about our whole lives without investing time in truly understanding the one person that we are with our whole lives – ourselves…

Join us for this truly illuminating course that will explain so much of your life, how your mind works and how to work best with those around you who have the same or differing personality types. Establish the foundations for success in your career and personal life as well as improving team dynamics. This one day course will open the door to you seeing yourself, others and the world around you in a different way….

Course Lead:

Dr Aroon Baskaradas, University College Hospital London, Orthopaedic Surgeon & Certified MBTI Practitioner along with a team of MBTI practitioners

Run in conjunction with the Royal Society of Medicine

Are you the kind of doctor who locums hard when you need extra cash?

Are you reliant on only one form of income?

Do you work ever harder yet are no closer to being financially independent?

If so, you are not alone.

Dr. Jim Dahle, a medical blogger, said that doctors struggle with money due to:

“a lack of financial literacy, poor financial discipline and a lack of long-term perspective…alongside a culture…where you don’t talk about financial topics

Therefore, Medic Footprints presents this essential webinar for medics who realise that managing finances is a core part of their holistic wellbeing strategy.
