HIMSS Impact 2018

The second annual HIMSS Impact event, which runs 17-18 October at the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI) in Potsdam, just outside Berlin, will focus on two distinct themes in two programme tracks – “How to Lead Digital Transformation within the Healthcare Sector” and the already established topic of “Big Data in Medicine”.

“Whether you’re a clinician, a C-suite manager, or a CEO, this event’s for you”, says Rainer Herzog, General Manager D-A-CH, HIMSS Europe GmbH. “Research insights, latest industry information and digital strategies will really give delegates something to take home with them so they can achieve tangible outcomes for their organisations. Those looking to steer their healthcare organisations confidently into the digital age should mark this event firmly in their diaries.”

The list of speakers will include Dr. Dominic King (Clinical Lead at DeepMind Health), Rachel Dunscombe (CEO NHS Digital Academy), Jan-Eric Slot (CIO/ CMIO member of the executive committee, Bernhoven Hospital), Prof. Björn Bergh (Chief Digital Officer, Universitätsklinikum Schleswig-Holstein) and Prof. Dr. Christoph Herborn (Medical Director, Asklepios Kliniken).

Apart from various sessions in both programme tracks, the conference features an EU Funding Session, organized by the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), a matchmaking networking event, regional-focused HealthCapital sessions to showcase some of the most inspiring projects of new start-ups, and lots of other networking opportunities.
