Step into Health Innovation: International and National Events Coming This October
Kaunas University of Technology (KTU), together with international partners, is inviting students and recent graduates to immerse themselves in the world of health technologies, digital solutions, and innovation. This October, the Health2Innovation programme will host two major events that will open the doors to unique learning experiences, professional growth, and international opportunities.
The first of these is the International Online Seminar, which will take place on October 21, 2025 (3:00–4:30 PM EEST). Held in English, the seminar will provide an introduction to the Health2Innovation training programme and present exclusive opportunities for young innovators. Participants will learn more about the upcoming Innovation Camp in Sweden in December 2025, where travel and accommodation costs will be fully covered, as well as a one-week internship in France in March 2026, with all expenses paid. The session will also highlight the range of funding, mentoring, and networking possibilities available to support promising health tech ideas. This online event is designed to serve as a gateway for students and graduates seeking to expand their knowledge and become part of the international health innovation community.
Later in the week, KTU will host the National Seminar on October 23–24, 2025, which will take place both on-site in Kaunas and online. Over the course of two days, participants will engage with a wide spectrum of topics central to the future of healthcare and digital innovation. These include health tech project planning, digital communication in healthcare, the use of artificial intelligence, extended reality (XR) and simulations in medicine, as well as pressing issues of cybersecurity in digital health. The sessions will be delivered in English by leading experts from academia and industry, ensuring that participants gain both practical skills and strategic insights. Those who successfully complete the modules will receive official certificates recognising their participation.
The Health2Innovation programme is specifically tailored for students and recent graduates in health, life sciences, IT, engineering, and business who are eager to explore the field of health innovation, develop their own projects, and connect with international initiatives. With training led by professionals, opportunities for international mobility, and access to a strong innovation network, the programme offers an invaluable starting point for those aspiring to contribute to the future of healthcare.
Participation in both events is free of charge, but registration is required.
