Summary

Throughout Europe, an increasing proportion of GDP is being spent on healthcare, in order to cope with the rising challenges associated with aging populations, chronic diseases (both physical and mental) and public expectation. Based on this, one of the thematic priorities for the European Commission’s Third Health Programme 2014-2020 aims to ‘Contribute to innovative, efficient and sustainable health systems’ with eHealth and innovation playing a vital role to achieve this.

This Forum Europe debate, taking place around the Commission's mid-term review on the second eHealth Action Plan, will include both digital innovation and horizontal, cross-sector perspectives, with a view to enabling a deeper, less siloed approach to healthcare thinking in Europe.

Who will I meet?

Topics to be discussed include:

The intermediate review of the second eHealth Action Plan
The 'Code of Conduct' on privacy for mhealth apps
Innovative healthcare for the 21st century: Fostering a supportive framework for eHealth in Europe
‘Meeting of the Minds’: Cross-sector sector and industry collaboration to support sustainable and smart health systems
Harnessing the power of data innovation for health

2016 SMART SESSIONS

The 2016 SMART SESSIONS is a series of high-level policy debates taking place around the world that explore how IoT is set to disrupt and revolutionise traditional business frameworks across key vertical markets.

The past 12 months has seen a maturing of the IoT ecosystem, with smart technologies and services being rolled out across a number of different sectors. Bringing together dual policy and business audiences, the 2016 SMART SESSIONS will discuss the fundamental changes that these ‘smart markets’ will bring, and the challenges and opportunities ahead.
