Challenge X | The Patient-led National Design Challenge 2025

Details

Organised by DesignSingapore Council’s School of X, in partnership with the Centre for Healthcare Innovation and the Alliance of Patients’ Organizations Singapore, Challenge X: the Patient-Led National Design Challenge, uses a design-led approach to tackle the challenges people living with long-term health conditions face.

Challenge X brings together patients, care providers, and designers to co-create solutions that allow them to live their lives fully, in the way they wish to, beyond the constraints and definition of a “patient”. It puts those at the heart of the problem to take the lead in solving it, resulting in solutions that people want to use, find easy to use, and are therefore more likely to get adopted.
