INISI employees recently participated in the Blue Balloon Challenge, an initiative by Medtronic aimed at supporting children with type 1 diabetes. The challenge is a metaphor for living with diabetes, with participants having to keep a balloon in the air while working. This simulates having to constantly monitor and keep blood levels within certain margins, as is required with type 1 diabetes.

We are happy that in this way we can also contribute a tiny bit to supporting children with type 1 diabetes. We call on everyone to also join the challenge by posting a video on social media with the hashtag #blueballoonchallenge.
