DayOne Conference:
Shaping the future of health in Europe

In its sixth edition, the DayOne Conference will once again be the showplace for new insights, bright ideas and strong opinions to inspire Europe’s innovators who want to shape the future of health.

After the welcome by Kaspar Sutter, governing council of the canton of Basel-Stadt and Head of the Office of Economy and Labour, you will hear about the future of digital health in Europe.

In the first session, see for yourself why taking the patient’s perspective is key in digital health: patient champions will present their challenges that have been identified for the DayOne Health Hack.

How do we get to a more patient-centric and digital future in healthcare, you ask? Listen to great innovators in the second session. They share insights about their initiatives on health data, cutting-edge technology, research innovation and funding of digital health. To conclude the session, we will present the exclusive findings of the Lancet & Financial Times Commission report “Governing health futures 2030: growing up in a digital world”.

After lunch, it’s your turn to join the discussion. We invite you to engage in different open innovation sessions. You have the opportunity to:

  • work together with the partners from the DayOne Health Hack to better understand the patient champions challenges and find solutions.
  • challenge and support a selection of Europe’s digital health startups from the DayOne Accelerator engaged in pain management.
  • learn from experts from Deloitte about different scenarios that will lead us into the health data future and what that means for Europe’s innovation strategy.

In the final session, we will share our learnings. Industry experts and entrepreneurs will discuss how the corporate world can best collaborate with startups and vice versa. To give you something to chew, our special guest, David Rowan, will then serve some food for thoughts on the future of health in Europe.
