«Digital health – From vision to best practices!»

The next edition of the «Healthcare of the Future» conference is coming up and we are looking forward to meeting in person again! The BFH is organising a conference that showcases the fast-paced progress of digitalisation in healthcare, which has also been impacted by the pandemic and has resulted in changes in the way we communicate. While the 2019 conference focused on interdisciplinary care pathways, the conference in 2022 will highlight the role of medical informatics in representing these processes digitally. We look forward to getting to know and discussing new approaches that are reshaping diagnostic and treatment processes using digital tools and interoperable systems in healthcare. Which solutions prove to be effective and efficient?

A common goal: different healthcare providers intermesh seamlessly and their systems are interoperable.

We are meeting in picturesque Biel/Bienne and invite you to join us to learn about the latest developments to improve and accelerate the treatment process in healthcare.

Take the opportunity to actively participate in this unique conference and to compete for Brönnimann’s Award.

We are happy to announce three well-known keynote speakers.
