09:30 – 09:55 | Opening Ceremony
We open the Health Tech Festival by setting the scene for the day ahead. Through strategic perspectives, policy insight and ecosystem thinking, we frame the key challenges – and opportunities – facing healthcare systems today.

10:15 – 11:30 | Efficiency in Healthcare
Healthcare systems across Europe are under increasing pressure to deliver more with fewer resources. This session explores how technology can drive efficiency and free up capacity where it matters most.
With robotics and automation as central themes, we look at how smart solutions can support healthcare professionals, streamline workflows and contribute to more sustainable health services.

12:30 – 13:30 | Health Technology for Preparedness, Defence and Dual Use
Geopolitical uncertainty, growing demands for preparedness and strained health systems are creating new expectations for collaboration across sectors. In this session, we explore the intersection between health technology, civil preparedness and defence – and the growing relevance of dual use technologies.

14:05 – 15:45 | Service Innovation and New Ways of Working
Technology alone is not enough. To unlock real value, new solutions must be embedded in services and ways of working that support people, processes and outcomes.
In this session, our main sponsors share insights and concrete examples of service innovation, organisational change and how healthcare providers and suppliers can work differently to create lasting impact.

Programme under development. Speakers will be announced continuously.
