The symposium will be divided into three tracks:
- Chronic Condition Management: Are personal health solutions the right prescription?
- Ageing Independently: Can personal health solutions support active ageing?
- Health & Wellness: Are personal health solutions on your menu?
How will these areas impact the current model of healthcare in Europe?
Attendees and presenters will discuss how the design, adoption and use of personal health solutions will impact chronic condition management, ageing, and health & wellness in Europe. They will explore emerging business models, preventative healthcare, best practices and examples of personal connected health at work and through policy.
