Our agenda will revolve around four central topics that the Global Health Connector Partnership considers crucial for the development of digital health markets in Europe and worldwide.
These priority themes are:
1. Data and Digital: Elevating healthcare transformation
Both data and digital technologies are key enablers of transformational change in healthcare. The session at DHWS2024 will focus on showcasing the latest innovations and important challenges to overcome, aiming to improve patient outcomes and ensure the financial sustainability of health systems.
In the discussion, we expect to touch on some of the following issues:
