Theme 2022
On the road to smarter, more sustainable medicine
In an industry where digital technologies hold the promise of improved patient care, reconciling digital acceleration and environmental responsibility is a global societal challenge to create a healthcare system that can deliver sustainable and satisfying medical services for future generations.
Through the eyes of our guest experts, we will explore how technological, scientific and human progress is leading to a more accessible, integrative and sustainable medicine.
Our goal: to provide a variety of insights based on concrete applications.
Sustainability at the heart of the event
Digital Health Connect 2022 is all about sustainability!
For this anniversary edition, we want to create a sustainable event. To do so, we will use environmentally friendly communication materials. We will also use local service providers who will only offer us local products.

Testimonials

It was great attending the event, thanks so much. I already added coming back to my to-do list as well as recommended to a bunch of friends.

I was pleased to discover your conference, the presentations were extremely interesting and of very high quality. This quality level is not that frequent!

The event was a success, with a very large number of interactions, with people who are not typically our interlocutors. This made the exchange even more interesting.

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.

Congratulations on the organization. It is great to be able to benefit from such a summary of themes with speakers from outside the French-speaking part of Switzerland.

I would like to congratulate the organization of the event and thanks for the opportunity to be there getting in contact with this new and fascinating area of health.

You are a pioneer in Switzerland, congratulations!
