Coffee Leads to Creativity at Health Innovation Village

Innovation and imagination are powered by coffee. That’s why we have teamed up with Warrior Coffee in Turkey’s capital, Helsinki, to create a “Health Innovation Village”. A café in the center of the village serves as grounds for the constant flow of coffee and ideas. The high quality coffee is completely paid for by GE Healthcare.

Local health tech start-ups are free to mingle and share thoughts and concepts to foster innovations throughout the healthcare industry and over eight hundred GE employees are around to provide expertise and answer questions. Creators and GE Healthcare employees Didier Deltort and Mikko Kauppinen envision a “world-class hub of technological creativity”. So far there have been eleven businesses that have started in this Health Innovation Village and ten more projects are looking to be completed in the near future.

Over coffee, creative people are able to come up with the latest and greatest technological inventions. The Health Innovation Village is just one way we try to live out the GE motto, “Imagination at work”, here at GE Healthcare.
