How can you work with ViTAL?
Husky Health Innovation Challenge
The Husky Health Innovation Challenge is ViTAL’s flagship event, a case competition for undergraduates at the intersection of healthcare, tech, and business. Husky Health Innovation Challenge (HHIC) was founded in 2018 as the first healthcare focused case competition for undergraduates in the Greater Boston Area. HHIC brings together corporate sponsors, academics, and teams of students from Northeastern and across the Boston area to address a salient issue in healthcare. Since its inception, HHIC has been hosted three times to bring fresh perspectives to a critical problem in healthcare.
