DiabetesMine Design Challenge: Vote Now!

Filed under: Net News

We would like to ask our readers to check out this year's DiabetesMine™ Design Challenge, a contest designed to highlight and reward new product ideas for people with diabetes. The competition is now closed for new entries. We are quite excited about this year's participation: twenty interesting entries have been submitted. So in order for us to pick winners this week, to be announced on Friday, June 20, we need your help.

Amy over at Diabetes Mine explains:

As noted, winners will be evaluated by a sort of reverse American Idol system: that means we’ll take popular vote into consideration, and the final selection will be made by a panel of judges. We’re looking for high points in three areas:

  • Efficiency - how well does it solve a real-life problem for people living with diabetes?

  • Clinical Efficacy – how realistic and applicable is this product from a medical standpoint?

  • Aesthetics - it’s the look and feel, Baby! How good is the pure design?
  • So, we’d like to hear from you on which of the 20 submitted design concepts appeal to you the most!

    So, please, head on to Diabetes Mine and participate: 2nd Annual DiabetesMine™ Design Challenge: VOTE HERE...

    The 2nd Annual DiabetesMine™ Design Challenge has been organized by DiabetesMine, is co-hosted by Medgadget, and supported by the world-renowned design firm IDEO.
