The hospital of the future will be different from the one we know today, and digital innovations will make a major contribution to this. The central question now arises: “How can the idea of innovation be brought into the hospital and implemented accordingly?”
Alfred Angerer's podcast guest today, Maximilian Grimm - Innovation Manager at the Kantonspital Baden (KSB) and Head of the Health Innovation Hub - has been finding answers to these questions for three years now and is actively involved in shaping the KSB into a smart hospital. Always driven by the attitude, "Healthcare is going to change and we want to know what direction it's going in." In his hub, the innovation manager (with a background in business administration and public policy) is primarily concerned not only with developing strategic concepts and viewing innovations as castles in the air, but also with actively driving them forward with visionary and competent partners in the hospital. For this purpose, innovative projects are carried out with start-ups, research partners and others, with the aim of becoming a better hospital, building synergies and learning from others.
Listen into this podcast episode to learn more about how KSB is transforming into the smart hospital of the future with the Health Innovation Hub and what tips Maximilian Grimm shares to pave the way towards a better healthcare system.
