Team Norway in the UK, in collaboration with Norway Health Tech is hosting a networking reception in London Monday 6 October.
Join us in London to discuss the digital shift, and how we can transform the way hospitals work using digital tools. Meet stakeholders from Norway and the UK and explore Norwegian digital health solutions expanding in the UK market.
Norway and the United Kingdom have a longstanding relationship, with the United Kingdom being one of Norway's largest trading partners.
While we may differ in size, the UK has about 60 million more people than Norway, our two countries share many similarities, we are proud champions of an accessible public health service, available for everyone and as a place for great innovations. We also pride ourselves on world-class health research and collaboration across business and academia.
Moreover, our two countries agree on this crucial point: Digitalisation is key to solving our similar healthcare challenges.
A growing aging population, more chronic diseases, and lifestyle diseases requires renewal of organisation, treatment, rehabilitation, and care.
There is a need to accelerate the use of new technology and digital opportunities to alleviate pressure more effectively on the sector. All this without compromising quality and value for patients and citizens.
Practical Information Please note that this is a by-invitation only event.
The programme will start at 6pm, doors open from 5.30.
All times are in GMT+00:00
