Title
Workshop: Patient Engagement / Pitch: Budiyu - Your Buddy to Get Grip on Your Health
Summary
Workshop: Patient Engagement: To build an inclusive, data-driven and value-based healthcare system that works for everyone — is that even possible? Wendy Maas (Axon Healthcare), Réka Deuten (Alliantie Digitaal Samenleven), and Teun Schutte (Budiyu) will guide an interactive session exploring how to make this shift happen. ----- Budiyu – Where care continues between appointments For people with living with stigma’s or chronic and rare conditions, most of their life—and most of their challenges—happen between clinic visits. Budiyu is a digital support system designed with patients to meet those everyday needs. Today, Budiyu helps users reflect on what matters most: their mood, energy, symptoms, treatment use, and daily challenges. It offers: • Personal insights through a simple diary and medical content • Encouragement and adherence support through lifestyle nudges and routines • Social connection via a private care network of family and friends Budiyu is free for users and built for trust—GDPR-compliant, encrypted, and designed to work across conditions. Our next step is to expand the platform’s value: • Launch medication ordering, through our Happi Med partner • Unlock richer content and personalised guidance • Build a smart peer-matching feature—connecting people facing similar lived challenges, not just the same diagnosis We already see that Budiyu helps users stay engaged with their care. Now, we need support to scale the platform and unlock the next phase of functionality. Our goals is for Budiyu to become the source of real-world insights into how people live with stigma’s, rare diseases and chronic conditions—data that’s currently missing from healthcare and research, but critical for designing better support. Budiyu fills a blind spot in care. Patients love it. We’re ready to grow it. With your support, we can turn everyday experiences into better outcomes—for individuals and systems alike.
