HOW HEALTH COMPANIONS ARE TRANSFORMING OUR LIFE ?
Digital Health Connect is the leading event in Switzerland for health and digital players. This day is a unique opportunity to learn about the latest trends in the field, to exchange and initiate partnerships.
For its 7th edition, Digital Health Connect gives a voice to international influencers of digital health. The conference aims to highlight the actors that are changing the health system:
entrepreneurs and industrialists who are deeply involved in the digital health market
researchers who invent the tools of tomorrow’s medicine
health professionals and their new “assistants” who are revolutionizing the health system
Step right into digital health and be welcome during the sharing and exchange day on May 29th 2020.

What to expect?
Inspiring conferences & showroom
Above all, the Digital Health Connect conferences are intended to be inspiring. Well-known speakers from Switzerland and abroad will bring you the latest information, share their vision and, most importantly, concrete examples from the field of digital health. Then, you will be able to meet them at their stands during their demonstrations.
B2B Meetings
Take the opportunity to schedule and solicit 20-minute appointments with other participants thanks to pre-arranged B2B appointments. It is a unique opportunity to make business contacts, build partnerships and develop your business!
Networking
Digital Health Connect is composed of listening moments (conferences), but also large networking places–around a coffee, a croissant or a cocktail dinner. A wonderful opportunity to meet digital health specialists (see attendance list).
More than just a conference
Digital Health Connect is a conference rich in content. All the presentations will be filmed and shared, thanks to the Klewel solution. Original content will also be produced so that no part of the conference escapes you!

A beautiful day, which gave me ideas for project development.
Congratulations for the organisation of this key day!
A very enriching day, quality speakers. Thank you.
