Our CFO Chris Lang, an avid quizzer, was an obvious choice to be #SJIC quiz master last week having appeared on Countdown and Bullseye among other quiz shows! Congratulations to the winning team from Venner Shipley, who were closely followed by the SJIC Innovation & Growth team in second place, and PwC UK #Cambridge in third. Chris took us through a pacy, interesting, and challenging quiz, which was enjoyed over nachos and drinks. Well done to all the teams and thank you to everyone who helped to ensure the event ran smoothly and was enjoyable for all. You can find all of our events, including future quiz nights, L&D opportunities, and networking, here: https://ow.ly/OISx50TLwEz

Amazing to see SJIC virtual tenant RevolveLabs feature on BBC News. Its Insight Programme in partnership with SNEE Training Hub is helping healthcare professionals experience patient consultations on chronic pain and dementia from both patient and practitioner perspectives using state-of-the-art VR headsets. This groundbreaking approach is not only innovative — it’s growing empathy, enhancing clinical skills, and ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. You can get in touch to talk to the RevolveLabs team about how VR can transform healthcare training: 👉 hello@revolvelabs.co.uk Find the link to the BBC article in Hamish Mackenzie's post below. #VRtraining #tech #healthtech #Cambridge #innovation
Is this the future of health education? From teaching surgeons the latest techniques and procedures to enabling GPs to experience different diagnostic scenarios, we believe #virtualreality will become an integral part of teaching healthcare professionals at every level. Delighted that BBC news featured the official launch of our latest project - an NHS GP training programme designed by RevolveLabs in conjunction with the East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust focusing on priority areas such as #ChronicPain and #Dementia #VR is more accessible and affordable than ever, and has the potential to revolutionise education in a variety of sectors. It's exciting to be at the cutting edge of a technology that has so many possibilities. https://lnkd.in/eqcbTaMn Professor Tan Arulampalam Nicole Bouvy Nikos Savvas DL Jacob Poulton Sam Lecacheur Sam Miller Harry Baxter Jon Ralph Louise Ballard Pieter De Backer Barbara Seeliger Lars Riedemann, MD Simon Rudland Alice Tsai Monica Ortenzi Dylan Attard MD, MRCSI, MEnt.
