Guernsey: Wednesday 21st June 7:30pm, Les Cotils
Jersey: Thursday 22nd June 8pm, Pomme D’Or Hotel
The prosthetics industry is broken: equipment is heavy and uncomfortable, as well as prohibitively expensive and inaccessible. That has left 35 million people around the world without access to prosthetics. Nate Macabuag is tackling the problem through less expensive prosthetics that are soft and modular so they can be fitted to anyone in the world through a virtual clinic.
Nate is a designer and entrepreneur, named on the Forbes ’30 under 30′ list of people to watch. He will be visiting to talk about his work, and ‘Project Limitless’ – his collaboration with the Douglas Bader Foundation.
For Jersey Lectures – the talk will start at 8:00pm (which is free to attend) but is preceded by an optional dinner, starting at 6:30pm. If you wish to attend the dinner at a cost of £30pp bookings can be made via Eventbrite (coming soon). If you have any dietary requirements, please email chairman.jsy@cigpe.com.
