I’d like to speak about my company or idea with someone from ANDHealth. Who can I speak to?
If you are unsure if you’re eligible for the program, feel free to contact our program team below. Alternatively we encourage you to book an office hours meeting here and will be in contact with an outcome or to set up a meeting to better understand your product.
Do I have to commit to all days of the program? OR What are the participation requirements?
We strongly encouraged to full participation in each workshop. The BRIGHT programs will build on each day’s learnings throughout the program – while we are less stringent in the virtual delivery of the program for full attendance, we do require a commitment to day one of the BRIGHT framework content. If you need to miss a session in day two or three, please let the program manager know and she will organise accordingly.
