Stanford Healthcare Design Challenge

A for-students, by-students global healthcare competition with one goal: ensuring that the best ideas and most promising solutions for the world’s trickiest healthcare problems are given a real chance to make an impact on the world.

In this global competition, we help students innovate solutions for complex healthcare challenges by democratizing healthcare innovation knowledge via our open-learning series, providing access to enthusiastic and knowledgeable mentors, and incorporating industry input through a competition judging panel composed of key stakeholders. Winning teams receive stipends for customer discovery and go-to-market strategies, an advisory board of senior mentors, access to perks from industry partners, and most importantly, support to turn their ideas into reality.


Knight-Hennessy scholars represent a vast array of cultures, perspectives, and experiences. While we as an organization are committed to elevating their voices, the views expressed are those of the scholars, and not necessarily those of KHS.
