NATIVE X IRISH DESIGN WEEK

Connected with Design: The
Future of Health Innovation

In a world where healthcare, technology, and science are rapidly evolving, design can link them together. 'Connected with Design' explores how design innovation bridges the MedTech and Life Science industries — shaping devices, systems, and experiences that serve people, business and planet.

Hosted by Native Design, this Irish Design Week evening brings together innovators, industry experts, and designers to discuss how creative collaboration drives progress in health and science. From human-centred product design to the invisible systems that connect patients, practitioners, and data, together, we’ll explore how Ireland’s MedTech and Life Science sectors can use design to bridge disciplines, inspire partnerships, and realise a healthier, more connected future.
