Medical Solutions - Recent Events

Recently, Telamon's Medical Solutions division has participated in various activities involving the healthcare industry. Read on for an update from our medical solutions team!

FIME Show
The FIME show is the largest medical-related trade show in the U.S. The show occurs once a year with more than 2,500 medical-related vendors attend from all over the world. It provides a great opportunity for attendees to learn about the trends for medical suppliers and devices. Telamon has attended the show throughout the years to seek potential partners and learn about the major players in the medical arena. 


Entrepreneur Bootcamp 
The Entrepreneur Bootcamp was hosted by Launch Fishers and put on by Techpoint. The event was held to help equip 100 early-stage to seed-stage entrepreneurs with the skills and information they need to be successful and catalyze the next wave of start-up activity in Indiana. Entrepreneurs also had the chance to compete for thousands of dollars in investment and services. Telamon's participation was to attend and learn about the current trends in the technology market from the dozen or so start-up experts and companies. Current funding and market trends are moving heavily on Internet/SaaS (Software as a Service) and more specifically in Healthcare IT and Big Data. This plays well into the current focus that Telamon's medical division is pursuing.

Hoosier Healthcare Innovation Challenge (HHIC)
HHIC is a dynamic, results-driven competition intended to bring together healthcare and technology professionals from around the state to identify and create solutions to some of the most challenging problems in healthcare. The challenge was started by the US Department of Health and Human Services in 2012, and Telamon has participated for the last 1 years. This year, Telamon submitted a solution called IN-PERCENT (Indiana Pregnancy Resource Center) to the Pregnancy Application challenge that was submitted by the Indiana State Department of Health. The challenge was to help reduce the state's infant mortality rate by delivering important educational information to expectant mothers. While Telamon was not chosen as a finalist, we generated some great ideas and quite possibly a new product offering within the medical solutions product portfolio!
