About The Smart Health Summit 2020

Much of the current focus in healthcare is rightly on the near-term challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. But beyond the current crisis, are we seeing a fundamental shift in healthcare delivery? Could the major changes we’ve seen in the fight against the pandemic promise to become permanent realities — from the sudden boom in telemedicine, to regulatory shifts impacting healthcare billing, to the use of location data to track disease.

What are the long-term implications for health and care services, clinicians, patients, start-ups and health technology? Is now the time for healthcare organisations to intensify their focus on strategic planning for a digital future and prepare to launch new initiatives once the crisis passes? Where and how can digital technologies, devices and apps, and the data they produce, have the most meaningful impact? How can they be evaluated to assess their effectiveness in terms of cost savings and enhanced patient experience and outcomes? To what extent can innovation promote wellness and reduce the burden on services?

The Business Post’s inaugural Smart Health Summit will answer these questions and many more as the industry explores ways to implement digital transformation and improve the impact of innovation. You will hear in-depth case studies of real digital projects taking place in the Irish health and care system. The agenda will examine the constraints and opportunities and consider how patients, clinicians, hospitals, pharma companies, health insurers, innovators, investors and regulators can work together to ensure that technology can meet the evolving needs of patients and sustain high-value integrated care.

The Virtual Summit

To adapt to the current environment and the growing demand for delegates to enjoy the conference experience in an online manner, the Smart Health Summit 2020 will come to you as a first of its kind virtual event.

While our delegates will join in from the comfort of their homes and offices across Ireland and around the world; the event itself will be broadcast live from our dedicated studio in Dublin. Many of our speakers and panellists will appear live on stage, while our international keynotes and participants will be video-conferenced in to join the conversation.

Delegates will have the opportunity to log on and step into the unique virtual summit environment, which includes access to the main virtual conference stage for the full day, live speaker & panel Q&A sessions, a virtual exhibition hall, copies of presentations & content post-event, as well as the opportunity to network, connect and chat with fellow online attendees, speakers and partners in real time.
