Healthtech Summit 2021

What are the mega trends in healthcare? What is the role of hospitals and clinicians in driving innovation? How do we attract investments to healthtech innovation?

Denmark must be a beacon for health innovation and healthtech. To succeed with this mission, we need to address the importance of health innovation and healthtech, the Danish strengths within health innovation and healthtech, the challenges that the Danish healthcare system faces and how to best address those challenges. We need to learn from international successes and insights, and strengthen collaboration across private and public partners both nationally and internationally.

On September 30, a long list of public and private partners therefore invite you to join us for Healthtech Summit 2021. It will be an exciting day where both national and international representatives from the entire healthtech ecosystem present their perspectives on healthtech innovation. Healthtech Summit aims to create a greater political focus on healthtech and health innovation by showcasing concrete models, solutions and insights. It will help boost the innovative capacity of the Danish healthcare system, which then will be equipped to meet both current and future challenges.

The event is aimed at civil servants and politicians at state, regional and municipal level, research and educational institutions, businesses, persons working with healthcare, relevant special interest groups, investors and funds, patients and relative among others.

Looking forward to see you.

    From idea to adoption - Why is it so difficult to find a home for Health Tech to grow

    We often celebrate the good idea or the grand vision for the use of Health Tech – but what about those who take the first steps and actually put the good ideas to work. The individuals who implement the great Health Tech visions. Those who bring new solutions into operation, where they provide value to our patients and healthcare professionals in both sectors.

    Will the adaption of AI in medical imaging happen through partnerships?

    Driving adoption at scale for new solutions like AI can be challenging for both large and small companies, because of uncertainties in the market and the risk that follows accordingly. Being a large and successful corporation, the dilemma between building, acquiring, or partnering to be on the fire front, is often a challenging part of any strategy - and potentially AI in medical imaging has shown to be a great match where startups and larger companies with market access can excel together. This is exactly what Jan and Stine will address in their talk.

    Panel debate: Patient centered innovation

    The need for targeted healthcare solutions is emerging all over the world. New solutions are developed at an unseen pace. Yet, putting these technologies into use remains a slow process. Further, it has proven particularly difficult to ensure that the solutions developed fit the everyday life of clinicians and patients. How do we ensure that there is a better match between the solutions developed and the need in the healthcare sector?

    What is the role of the patient in innovation? How do we incorporate new technologies based on patient preferences into clinical practice? How do we ensure that we don’t developed health tech solutions in vain? Are there any innovation models that have proven successful which we should consider? Are we too caught up with the idea of being fast that we forget that innovation and change is not necessarily a quick-fix or a one size fits all, but it also entails new forms of collaboration e.g. co-creation, change management etc.

    Denmark as a leading healthtech nation

    When it comes to medical technology, Denmark is one of Europe’s leading medical technology nations. Innovation and business growth within healthcare innovation is one of Denmark’s key business strengths. But we can do better to become world leading when it comes to Healthtech and health innovation. We need to strengthen the collaboration amongst the different actors within the Danish Health tech ecosystem with the aim to improve processes and patient outcomes. Everyone with ideas on how to improve the Danish healthcare system is invited to join the journey.

Session 1: Successful health innovation in hospitals

Major progress has been performed in accelerating the development of new therapeutics, diagnostics, and digital solutions to provide healthcare. However, sparking innovation at hospitals is a challenging endeavor. One of the main difficulties is the lack of a direct relationship between investment in innovation and achievement of results in patient experience. Creating a culture of innovation at the hospital is crucial to succeed as well as having the resources, competencies, and agile processes in place.

The panel of experts represent different innovation environments around the world. They will discuss ways of accelerating innovation at the hospital. How do you create an innovative culture and how do you put innovation on the top of the agenda of busy clinicians every day? What does it take to drive innovation toward a new standard of care for patients? How do you select the right innovations which potentially comes from a wide range of different players?

Session 2: Commercializing health innovation and healthtech

More and more hospitals in innovation hotspots are taking on an active role in driving innovation to meet the needs of healthcare. A crucial component of harnessing health innovation is strong hospital-university-industry collaboration in spinning-off and commercialising new solutions for the benefit of patients globally.

The panel of experts from Denmark, Israel and the US will discuss ways of accelerating collaborations between hospitals, universities and industry, address challenges of commercialising innovation and explore ways to foster international collaborations.

Session 3: Compentencies – A key to health innovation

If Denmark is to succeed in increasing the use of new technologies and constantly innovate health tasks in hospitals, nursing homes and elder care, the key component is the staff. It is vital, that the future health professionals possess an extensive understanding of the technologies and of the importance of digitalization. It is also vital that the staff is included when decisions are made.

This session focus on how we can create the best conditions for the use of new technologies and for structural and continuous innovation in the health sector by investing in the skills of the present and future staff.
