At the end of August, the Norwegian Ministers of Trade and Industry and Health and Care Services, Jan Christian Vestre and Ingvild Kjerkol, presented a new roadmap for the health industry. The future goal is to contribute to business development and sustainable healthcare services.

How can Norwegian and German companies benefit from collaborations in the health sector? Which technologies will prosper in an increasingly digital market for healthcare?

The Conference on Digital Health – The German and Norwegian Markets, is a platform for the discussion of critical developments within the German and Norwegian health sector. In collaboration with Norway Health Tech, we invite industry representatives, researchers, and organizations from both countries to take part in a dialogue on the potential for market developments and new technologies, as well as presentations of companies from the sector.
