Looking back and looking forwards towards a better digital health future

EHTEL's 2024 Symposium is a particularly important gathering and an especially festive event, held during the association's 25th anniversary year. It will involve attendees in looking back and looking forward. In the digital health field, where the one constant is change, looking back at the "where" and "why" it all started from,​ is crucial for creating a better future.​
 
Isthepastactuallythefutureformaintenance “Back to the future” is the theme of EHTEL's 25th Anniversary Symposium in 2024
 
Looking back, EHTEL members will explore their lessons learned on managing change and their deployment journeys over time. Topics to be covered include: 
 
  • Data sharing, from silos to ecosystems
  • Towards an enabling infrastructure
  • From process-centred care to people-centred care. 
 
Looking forward towards a better digital health future, EHTEL members and friends will highlight:
 
  • Transforming care delivery, including the use of AI
  • Change management, including capacity-building
  • Implementation strategies for the European Health Data Space.  
 
The Symposium agenda and content is being built by an EHTEL multi-stakeholder programme committee.
