ELAROS presents Open OH elevator pitch at SBRI Show and Tell event

Last week, two of our colleagues Toby Boud and Oscar Petherick had the opportunity to attend a Show and Tell event organised for the participants of the SBRI funding call ‘Increasing access to and capacity in Occupational Health’. The event took place at the Department of Health and Social Care and in attendance was the Minister of State for Employment Jo Churchill MP and the Minister of State for Health and Social Care Helen Whately MP, who opened the event and listened to all of the project team’s elevator pitches.

ELAROS colleagues presented our work on Open OH, a stand-alone app created to support people with Long Covid and other long term conditions with their symptom management and occupational health needs.

The event also included a fascinating Q&A session with industry leaders including Lanre Ogunyemi FFOM FFOMI FACOEM FRCPIShriti Pattani OBE and Professor Steve Nimmo, which allowed us to find out more about the occupational health service provision, and how best our products can aid this.

It was great day of networking, making meaningful connections, getting to see the exciting work that other projects are creating and demonstrating our own product.

ELAROS is grateful to SBRI for hosting such an insightful and collaborative event.
