[Note: This is a note sent to the Innovators who are planning to present 4x4s at HealthCa.mp/RDU. WE are sharing it here as well so that participants can get some insight in to the day at HealthCamp.]
We are delighted to have a fascinating line up of innovators taking part in
HealthCampRDU and the 4×4 presentation session is an important part of the day at HealthCamp! The sessions will help kick start that day’s discussions. Thank you for agreeing to be one of these innovators!
As we get closer to HealthCampRDU it is time to put the finishing touches to the 4×4 Presentations. This email is to provide you with advice and guidance in your preparations and also to solicit your input so that we can plan and group the presentations around particular themes. If you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to drop me an email.
What we need from you:
By Thursday May 17th – Let us know which category you think your 4×4 best fits.
If you find that you are unable to present on May 23rd please let us know so we can adjust the 4×4 sessions accordingly. There are no hard feelings! You can always send us a copy of your slides and a write up and we can post to the
HealthCa.mp/RDU site.
First some background:
Q:What is a 4×4?
It is a short presentation using 4 slides that are presented in 4 minutes.
You may supply a cover slide that identifies:
– Title of the presentation
– Presenter’s Name and Organization
– Contact information (eg. email address)
– URL to slides (if posted on line eg. on Slideshare)
The FOUR slides forming the presentation itself are to be presented in just FOUR minutes.
Q: Do the slides follow a standard format?
Yes, The slides follow a standard pattern – but the template and design is up to you
These are the four slides:
Slide 1: What is the problem/challenge
Slide 2: What are you doing to deal with the problem/challenge
Slide 3: What don’t you know / What did you discover / What do you need help with (you can cover any or all of these aspects)
Slide 4: Why did you take on this challenge (We have found so many entrepreneurs who are driven to address a health care problem by events that have impacted themselves, friends or family)
Q:How are we organizing the 4x4s?
We will be grouping 4x4s in to groups of 3 or 4. This gives us the capacity to handle up to 16 4x4s by utilizing all of the available rooms. A moderator will be assigned to each room. They will keep the presenters to their 4 minute time slot.
Presentations will be given back to back after which the Moderator will open up to questions from the other participants in the room. We expect this dialogue, where the presenters effectively form a panel to address the Q&A, will drive discussion and those discussions could form the basis of ongoing conversations that can be slotted in to the day’s agenda at the collaborative agenda setting that will immediately follow the 4×4 sessions.
Q:What can you put on the slides?
You can include animation, video or audio – the only real hard and fast rule is the 4 minute time limit.
Q:Do the slides have to be fancy or complex?
No – You can make the slides really simple. eg. Slide 1 – PROBLEM STATEMENT, Slide 2 – PLAN, Slide 3 – LESSONS LEARNED, Slide 4 – My story. You don’t have to explain or include all the bullet points on the slide, instead you can simply speak to the slide titles during your presentation.
Q:What formats can you use for your presentation:
You can provide your presentation in any of the following formats:
– PDF
– PowerPoint
– Keynote
– Prezzi
Q:When must slides be delivered?
– We need to receive a copy of your finished slides by 9:00am on Tuesday May 22nd. This will allow us time to group slides in to sets for each room/theme.
Q:Who is giving a 4×4?
The 4x4s are a feature that enables the innovative sponsors who are supporting HealthCampRDU to talk about the exciting innovations they are involved in. Priority will be given to sponsors for the available 4×4 slots. If there are still slots available other participants may put forward 4x4s to present. We are keeping the official 4×4 session to a series of parallel tracks that run for 1 hour immediately after the Firestarter talk and before the collaborative Agenda setting. However, there is nothing preventing participants from organizing their own follow-up 4×4 sessions as part of the subsequent sessions.
Q: Are there Other opportunities to present?
The nature of HealthCamp is that YOU, the participants, define the agenda on the day. If there are a group of non-sponsor participants who wish to present a 4×4 there is nothing preventing those prospective presenters from suggesting a time slot on the days agenda and pulling together a series of 4x4s. We also expect the 4×4 sessions to stimulate discussion that you may want to continue during the rest of the day. Those discussion sessions will be placed on the agenda immediately after the 4×4 session.
We need some help from you:
We want to group similar 4x4s together so that we create a series of themed tracks. Consequently we need to know the theme that your 4×4 supports. I am identifying potential themes in a list below. However you can also respond to this email with the title of your 4×4 presentation AND a list of 2 or 3 words that will help us categorize the presentation in to a themed track. So here are the currently proposed themes:
– Patient Engagement
– Provider Community
– Research and Development
– Health IT?
IMPORTANT: Please let us know by Thursday May 17th which category your 4×4 best fits in to.
If you feel there is a better categorization that your 4×4 fits in to please let us know.
