Flow Neuroscience: At the Cutting Edge of Mental Health Innovation

Time to Care
Without care, there is a good chance that HealthTech could make our situation worse. If the focus is purely on the economic buyer’s needs at the expense of the users or ultimate beneficiaries, the products and services developed will simply increase the volume of work we are doing. Worse still, this work will now be of higher complexity and challenge, as we are driven to work ‘at the top our our licence.’ We’ll be building digital whips but, if we do things the right way, things could look very different.
