KidneyX, in its effort to spur innovation in the kidney space while building momentum among the kidney community and public for KidneyX’s first prize competition, will hold a pitch-event titled “KidneyX Innovators Showcase” in coordination with ASN Kidney Week 2018. The event will be held on Oct. 27 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on the exhibit hall floor of the San Diego Convention Center.
Five participants or teams will be selected to participate in the event and will be allotted 5 minutes to pitch their ideas for methods or products that may improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases to a group of judges. Applicants are asked to send an email with “KidneyX Innovators Showcase” in the subject line and a maximum three-page summary to be considered for the event.
