How to submit
- Submission template (mandatory)
A standard template is available. The template will help you structure your solutions and approaches and provide answers to all relevant questions and frameworks. Download the Submission Template here - optional content
You can try to stand out and also supplement your submission with prototypes, image and video materials, or other concepts or visual elements - simply submit these files additionally via our platform.
Mandatory Questions
These three questions should definitely be answered as part of your concept:
- What unmet need for cancer patients or any of the other 6Ps (patients, payers, physicians, pharma, policymakers) have you identified in the home care value-chain?
- How does your solution address the identified unmet need? What is the potential impact of your solution on the home care of cancer patients and their families?
- What should the go-to-market strategy be for such a solution? How could you join forces together with Gerresheimer?
Criteria & guidelines
Measure of Impact
It is essential for solution providers to introduce a clear measure of how their ideas can enhance the quality of life for cancer patients. Target as many of the 6Ps as possible to increase the chances of success.
Sustainability and Scalability
To ensure the sustainability and scalability of the solution, it is crucial to balance the impact on patients with market potential. Participants should try to find a business case around their products and services.
Focus on Services
Participants can focus on building services around the devices that are available from Gerresheimer – see here (Link Knowledge Base)
Target Key Stakeholders
Participants should split their solutions over key concerns of stakeholders, identify the needs of consumers and customers, and base their solutions on them.
Understanding of Target Market
Understanding the target market is key to the success of the solution. Europe and the US are critical markets and should be given adequate attention.
Not just Technology
Participants should not just focus entirely on technological solutions – there could also be other strategic ways to innovate the home care field.
