Novo Nordisk’s first diabetes innovation challenge winners head to the lab

From smart insulin pen caps to artificial intelligence systems for seniors, Novo Nordisk capped its first innovation challenge last month with five tech-plus-diabetes idea winners. The pharma awarded each winning team a cash prize of $25,000 and 12 weeks in a virtual accelerator program to build and test their ideas alongside Novo Nordisk mentors. The accelerator starts this month and runs through March.
