Ahead of Empire State Opioid Epidemic Innovation Challenge, GEMs Boxes Reflects on Co-Creation

CAMTech Chats

“You do not need to have a technical background. You need to have a desire to solve a problem and the willingness to work towards a solution.” In episode 5 of CAMTech Chats, we’re joined by Andrew Schwartz of GEMs Boxes, the team which won the $10,000 Post-Hack-a-thon Award during CAMTech’s 2016 Opioid Epidemic Challenge Summit & Hack-a-thon with the GE Foundation. As CAMTech responds to the opioid epidemic in New York during the Empire State Opioid Epidemic Innovation Challenge, Andrew reflects on why he first decided to participate and what he hoped to accomplish with the GEMs Boxes team. CAMTech Chats is moderated by Nicholas Diamond.
