The WAEH02020 Design Expo is an exhibition of innovative solutions, visual concepts and prototypes developed for a current healthcare problem in eyehospitals by artists and designers. The exhibition is an integral part of the WAEH2020 event.
The aim of the Design Expo is to stimulate collaboration between the eye hospitals / eyecare and the creative sector. The healthcare landscape is changing and it needs innovative solutions more than ever. In order to accelerate innovations, collaboration with creative people who are capable of thinking outside of the traditional frameworks of the healthcare sector is essential.
By participating in the exhibition, artists and designers get the opportunity to present their work to the public during the WAEH2020 event and generate contacts with potential collaborators and business partners/investors in the healthcare sector.
