Join us in June to learn more about Finland as an Innovative Location for co-development of AgeTech solutions, like digitally assisted technologies, products and services that are designed to improve the lives or care of the ageing population.
The aim of the event is to open up for example real-life operating environments, where new products and solutions are co-developed together with companies, healthcare professionals, homecare providers or operators of assisted living facilities and end-users.
This event is targeted for participants, that are active or have an interest in co-development of new AgeTech solutions, distribution or sales of existing solutions, procurement of solutions or investment into sector companies.
The event is free of charge and does not require registration for HIMSS 2022.
