A networking and learning opportunity for Ghent health organisations

This week our meeting centre hosted the third edition of Ghent HealthTech Tuesday, a networking and learning event organised by the city of Ghent and imec.istart for Ghent healthcare organisations. It was an inspired and successful evening for tech innovators and healthcare professionals.

‘We are proud that our hospital was allowed to host this event. Our organisation stands for high-tech expert care that is supported by innovation and (scientific) research. By collaborating with the strong healthtech ecosystem in Ghent, we aim to improve medical outcomes, patient experience and physician and employee satisfaction,’ says Dr Ronny Goethals, chief medical officer of Maria Middelares.

What was covered in this event?

  • The launch of our Health Value Space Ghent: this is how we are becoming an ‘smart' organisation where care is also offered outside the hospital walls.
  • How our hospitals prioritise innovation, what role start-ups play in this and how collaborations are instituted.
  • Two inspiring panel discussions with XEOS and Tiro.health.
