Innovation and new technologies are at the basis of many productive sectors. Among them, healthcare is the one that is more actively relying on innovation and the one more prone to improve by leveraging new technologies as soon as they become available.
Technology is extending the life expectancy, improving the overall quality of life, and reducing the impacts of external factors on human health. In this event, the Healthcare WG and the Innovation and Technology WG of the Italian Chamber of Commerce partner together to provide an ensemble of outstanding speakers that will share the impact that technology had in their professional experience, and will captivate the audience by showing glimpses of the near future.
