For its 7th edition, the Healthtech Summit returned to Lausanne on June 21 - 22, 2016 and once again focused on showcasing the top 20 medtech and top 20 digital health companies in Europe at the IMD (Institute for Management Development) campus. The 40 presenting companies, represented by their CEOs and carefully selected by our two top tier Selection Committees, had the opportunity to network with key international investors who can assist them with their global expansion plans. Furthermore, the program saw a balanced and varied succession of corporate presentations, interactive panel discussions on opportunities related to accelerating investment in this sector as well as dedicated networking sessions and a Networking Dinner. The 2016 edition of the Healthtech Summit focused on Medtech & Diagnostics and Digital Health.

Roberto Ascione, Healthware International & President 2016 Healthtech Summit says:   Digital & technology innovations are starting to radically transform healthcare with Europe becoming a very vibrant playground. To deliver on their promises Medtech and Digital Health need breakthrough ideas, talented teams, capital and committed industry leaders. The Healthtech Summit will offer all of this in two days of keynotes, panels, pitches and networking with a focus on high growth potential start-ups.
