eHealth Forum: Catalyst for Reform – Enabler for Growth


The eHealth Forum will be held in Athens, Greece on the 25th and 26th of October, 2016 at the Megaron Athens International Conference Centre.

The eHealth Forum becomes the annual meeting point for Greece, the South East Mediterranean and the Middle East, to reach and network with key stakeholders. The eHealth Forum invites policy makers, industry leaders, medical professionals, health care providers, tech innovators, researchers, investors, pharma, telecommunications companies, patient advocacy groups and major health IT players to connect and pursue the role of ehealth as a catalyst of reform and enabler of economic growth.

The rapidly growing eHealth sector estimated to dominate all areas of industry by 2020 presents a unique opportunity for collaboration, financial and scientific growth and social reform. Within this expanding market further developing information technologies and applications in digital health is essential to promote the reform of the healthcare system and therefore act as a catalyst for these imperative changes. The process of reforming healthcare is, in and of itself, an enabler for economic growth in various sectors: research, industry, information and telecommunications technologies. The eHealth Forum presents “hot” topics high on the “digital agenda” in Europe and the surrounding region, while providing the channel to present and disseminate information on scientific and technological advancements in healthcare.
