Johnson & Johnson Nurses Innovate QuickFire Challenge
Calling for Nurse Innovators
As innovators on the frontlines of health care, nurses have the power to profoundly change lives. An estimated 20 million nurses and midwives around the world — the equivalent of more than 50% of the healthcare workforce — are the backbone of health systems worldwide.
The power of nurse-led innovation and knowledge is more critical than ever when developing potential solutions amid a continuing global pandemic. With extensive patient experience, nurses’ ideas have the potential to profoundly improve human health amid the current pandemic environment and beyond.
We are proud to partner with Johnson & Johnson and the American Nursing Informatics Association (ANIA) for the Johnson & Johnson Nurses Innovate QuickFire Challenge: Healthcare Transformation through Nurse-led Tech. As part of our mission to shape health care through innovative and expert nursing leadership, the QuickFire Challenge will nurture early-stage ideas by celebrating, supporting and mentoring the nurse innovators behind them.
Access to Grant Funding & Mentoring
The nurse innovators with the best idea(s) will receive up to $100,000 in grant funding and access to mentoring from experts across the Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies to help bring their ideas to life.
