Braver finalist at the 2025 PLS Awards — interdisciplinarity at the heart of our DNA

This award highlights initiatives that place interprofessional collaboration at the heart of care — a recognition that deeply aligns with our mission and technology.

A flagship event for healthcare innovators

Held on June 5–6 in Montreal, the PLS event brought together healthcare leaders for two days of conferences, panels, workshops, and award ceremonies — all centered around sharing, collaborating, and transforming the healthcare system.

For Braver, attending — and being named a finalist — was a powerful validation of our human-centered, team-first approach.

The PLS Awards: a platform for impactful innovation

Among the many initiatives presented, the PLS Awards showcased innovative projects in four categories:

• Artificial Intelligence / Applications
• Social Innovation
• Interdisciplinarity
• Preventive Health

We were proud to be nominated in the Interdisciplinarity category, alongside other inspiring teams working to improve collaboration in care.

While we didn’t take home the award, we gained visibility, momentum, and community support — and that’s a win in itself.

Interdisciplinarity: our foundation, not a trend

At Braver, we believe that great care starts with great communication between professionals. From day one, we’ve built tools that help care teams share key information quickly — and treat better, together.

This vision drives our platform’s development:

• Enabling smooth communication between doctors, physiotherapists, kinesiologists, nurses, and caregivers
• Reducing redundant admin tasks
• Keeping everyone informed, in real time

This isn’t a feature. It’s the core of our solution.

A real-life example: sports medicine

Take a example case we know well in sports medicine:

“Alex, a university soccer player, sprained his ankle. With Braver, I was able to discuss with his physio, share his X-ray results, and send my recommendations to the athletic therapist — all in one place.

Before, I’d spend an hour every evening calling each person. Now I finish the consult, open Braver, and send one structured message to the whole team.

We save time — but most importantly, we care better.”

This kind of smooth collaboration isn’t limited to sports. It applies in geriatrics, home care, mental health, pediatrics — anywhere teams rally around a patient.

A heartfelt thank you

Our sincere thanks to the PLS Awards team, @PrixPLS, for creating such an important platform to spotlight innovation in care.

Congratulations to all the finalists and winners — your projects push us to go further.

What we’re taking away from the congress

Mathieu, our VP of Technology, joined a powerful panel on the role of compassionate technologies:

“The Harfang Program in Action: Strengthening Caring Communities Through Health Technologies”

Earlier that day, our CEO Marie-Lou took part in a podcast recording as part of the Leaders’ Agora at PLS 2025.

With clarity and warmth, she shared Braver’s vision: a more human, collaborative, and future-ready healthcare system. 💛

“It was a meaningful conversation where I shared what inspired us to start Braver, how we can build a more collaborative system, and the vision I carry for tomorrow’s healthcare.”
