Iasi is known as one of the fastest growing tech hubs in Europe, being home to a highly skilled IT community and to health & med tech companies active mainly in digital health, diagnostics and pharmaceuticals.  

Starting from the panel sessions where clusters managers will present best practices in Smart health ecosystem transformation, European specialists will engage in presentations about AI & Smart Health Technologies in Medical Diagnostics and treatment, hospital managers will debate the challenges in implementing smart hospital concepts and representatives of patient associations will present how can be incorporated the patients’ needs in personalized healthcare, a project generation roundtable focusing on ideas to implement the concept of smart health is envisaged. The goal is to facilitate consortia development dedicated to smart health technologies in medical diagnostic & treatment and to apply for EU funding programs such as Horizon Europe, EU4Health, Digital Europe or Interregional Innovation Instrument (I3).

Nonetheless, the most attractive part of the program could be the European pitching competition of the HealthTech and MedTech startups & companies to clusters and hospital managers, medical specialists, testing clients and potential investors. The pitching session will be complemented by speed networking, mentoring sessions for the startups and C2C, B2B, R2B, B2C meetings, in order to create a proper context for future collaboration between the participants.
