At #HIMSS24Europe in Rome, Digital Health Advocate and our Deputy Secretary General of the Ministerie van Volksgezondheid, Welzijn en Sport of the Netherlands, Abigail Norville, invites international policy makers to work together. And to prioritize the development of new technologies as AI in healthcare, empowering patients and healthcare professionals if used responsibly and ethically. That is why the Netherlands chairs the #GlobalDigitalHealthPartnership uniting digital health authorities to advance digital health together. #digital #transformation #healthequity

Attended a very interesting presentation from Shawn Murphy about HIRO from the iconic US integrated health care system Mass General Brigham at the 7th Annual SCOPE Europe: Summit for Clinical Ops Executives in Barcelona last week. Fascinating to hear about an organisation running 4,400 clinical trials at any given time. Particularly interesting was the sponsored research maturity model. Really appreciate Shawn taking my question regarding which level took the longest to work through in the maturity model. I really liked the thinking around the variability being dependant on where the health system's strengths are i.e. you will move faster where you have existing strengths and capabilities as a team. Biggest insight was that the longest part of the process was working with senior management to buy into the vision and getting everyone on the same page and understanding the complexity and challenges. Lessons applicable for any organisation looking to increase the innovation and digital maturity level. #HIRO #SCOPEEurope #ClinicalResearch #Innovation #PatientOutcomes Tom Arneman, Ye Chin Lee, MBA, Christopher Herrick

Today, AOP Health had the opportunity to be part of the IV Working Group Research & Technology at the Austrian Parliament (Parlamentsdirektion). #Specialthanks to AOP Health colleagues Carmen Visus, PhD and Johanna Grames for their preparation and effort! It was an inspiring demonstration of Austria's commitment to becoming a global leader in #innovation and #technology. The meeting highlighted Austria’s strategic vision, emphasizing #digitalization, #AI, #datamanagement, #education, and #research-industry collaboration as pivotal elements for driving #growth and #sustainability. With planned initiatives like the Digitalization Strategy and Artificial Intelligence, Austria is advancing its digital infrastructure, fostering trustworthy AI, and addressing critical labor market needs through programs that attract global talent. Here, a few #highlights: Mag. Florian Frauscher MLS, from the Federal Ministry of Labour and Economy (BMAW), provided a compelling outline of Austria's framework for research, technology, and innovation (RTI). His presentation reinforced Austria’s ambition to strengthen its business environment, advance key technologies, and foster international collaboration. He also emphasized the importance of supporting start-ups, promoting equal opportunities in research, and creating an ecosystem where innovation thrives, positioning Austria as a leading hub for technological and economic resilience.   Univ.-Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr. techn. Christian Ramsauer from Graz University of Technology brought forward tangible examples of R&D collaboration through initiatives which seamlessly bridge academia and industry. His approach demonstrated how innovation ecosystems can foster impactful solutions while equipping the next generation with practical and entrepreneurial skills. The discussions collectively underscored a unified vision for advancing Austria's innovation landscape, driven by collaboration, inclusivity, and sustainability. #aophealth #needssciencetrust #innovation #collaboration #sustainability

📢 Last month, Monitoring Life had the honor of being interviewed on the main stage during the second edition of the #Health Revolution Congress, held at Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau on May 16th organized by Barcelona Health Hub. 📌Alejandro Gonzalez was given a five-minute window to highlight why #cardiacinsufficiency is our primary focus. He elaborated on the importance of monitoring this condition to improve patient outcomes, detailed the challenges we face as a self-funded startup in the health sector, and discussed our strategies for overcoming these obstacles. 🩺 📌To watch the full video, please follow the link provided below. #monitoringlife #sensocor #cardiacinsuffiency #insuficienciacardiaca

The pandemic has indeed underscored that health transcends borders. Each system grapples with unique challenges, yet our greatest strides come from collective wisdom. By embracing technologies like telemedicine from our neighbors, adopting best practices in data sharing, and fostering collaborative research, we can transform our healthcare landscape. The key lies in breaking down silos and fostering symbiosis, ensuring that innovation and empathy guide our journey. Together, we can create a resilient, interconnected health system that leaves no one behind. #HealthTech #Collaboration #Innovation #GlobalHealth #HealthcareTransformation

I love it when my colleagues share their experience and knowledge. We can all learn the theory but how do we implement mandatory requirements so that they are both compliant and practical? This is when these kind of events really come into their own because those who have 'been there, done it and got the T-shirt' can share their insights for the benefit of the #MedTech industry, #regulatoryprofessionals, #clinicians and ultimately, the #patient. My thanks to Shahram Ahmadi, PhD. for very happily taking part in this #DigitalHealthInnovationSalon 😊 #HereToHelp

Have: a conference highlighting the successes of and potentials within #healthtech.

Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to participate in the PQMD 2024 Global Health Policy Forum in New York, recognize some familiar faces and meet amazing professionals. This year's conference theme was "Global Health Leadership in Turbulent Times" which resulted in engaging discussions with a wide range of stakeholders: people from government, academia, civil society, the private sector, and various consultants.   The forum highlighted our unpreparedness for future challenges, as evidenced by the Covid-19 pandemic and climate crisis. With a predicted temperature rise of 2.7°C by the end of the century, we are going to experience more frequent and destructive weather events, impacting vulnerable people and disrupting underprivileged health systems. Paul Knox Clarke, Senior Climate Advisor for International Medical Corps forecasted the following increases: the scale and frequency of needs, the complexity of our operational environment, the overall global uncertainty, and our need to change and adapt!   Amidst these challenges, we also celebrate remarkable medical advancements— more in the past 10 years than in the last 100 years! Progress in robotic, genetics, biology, and artificial intelligence (AI) have incredible potential for the health sector. We will have to remain vigilant in making sure how we create, use, and evaluate these new tools.   Finally, the emphasis on multisector partnerships aligns perfectly with our mission at The Max Foundation The Max Foundation, where I work. I resonated deeply with Dr. Peter Singer's message, "Focus on that one thing you do, do it well, do it better, do it more collaboratively, and do it at a larger scale."   We also discussed the importance of building capacity and local sustainability structures in order to make a lasting impact!   #PQMDforumNYC #GlobalHealth #GlobalWarming #TheMaxFoundation #AIForHealthcare 

#DigitalTrust is the confidence users have in the ability of people, technology and processes to create a secure digital world. If you cannot trust your digital health technologies, you cannot use them in the real world.
