Her parents have little experience with what this entails and are a bit worried. Sophia feels her parents’ insecurity and gets anxious. Every 10th examination involves a child – with staggering failure rates of 30-50%. This results in stress for all stakeholders involved, high sedation rates that might cause side effects as well as longer procedure times and higher costs. Since children differ significantly in their cognitive and emotional needs from other patient groups, child- and parent-friendly education is very important. This is often not standardized in clinics.We need your ingenious ideas on how to make the MRI scan experience better for pediatric patients and on how to prepare them already weeks before the appointment to the day itself and possibly even afterwards.Create an outstanding patient-centered solution that also considers parents. Develop an immersive and interactive experience (e.g. with augmented reality or other technologies) that reduces anxiety, fear and stress for children, by enhancing their perception and providing them with a sense of control, comfort, safety – and fun.Your solution should be engaging, accessible and easy to use, while addressing the specific needs of pediatric care.<h3>CHALLENGE DATEV</h3>DISRUPTING HR PROCESSES WITH AIImagine you work in HR and have to scan a couple of hundred applications every week. Then, after having manually answered all the questions the potential candidates had, you’d like to invite the most promising ones to a first interview. However, for some applicants you can only offer a time slot in several weeks due to your and your colleagues’ limited capacities. It would make life much easier – both for HR teams and for (future) employees – if AI were used to automate processes, thus speed them up, and find the best matches for open positions.Together with you, your game-changing ideas and the power of AI we want to create the most innovative solutions with a top-notch user experience. Shape the future of HR considering a maximum in data security in order to build strong trust among potential user groups. Redesign existing and repetitive processes in a way that enables faster, more effective and automated management or ensures easy collaboration. Feel free to consider different areas of an HR journey, no matter if it’s recruiting, smooth onboarding, or individualized employee development tailored to specific strenghts. Increasing candidate diversity could also be an aspect to think about.Incorporate machine learning, chatbots and speech analytics to achieve a stellar and seamless user experience. The goal is to find innovative solutions that create a better employee experience and make work processes more effective and efficient. Be bold and curious! Keep an eye on the integrability into existing environments, on the requirements of different employee generations and on the future of the internet.<h3>CHALLENGE WILD CARD</h3>GO WILDYou already have a brilliant idea buzzing around your head that you would love to tackle?
