The Middle East & Africa healthcare sector was witnessing an increasing shift towards digitalisation, even before the COVID-19 era. Healthcare transformation, digital healthcare, and smart hospitals are no more buzz words or part of a futuristic agenda, but a need of the hour.

Having said, healthcare providers are currently scaling and accelerating their digital transformation and implementing disruptive technologies to be able to manage the current volume of patients while improving patient safety & enhancing their overall experience.

This has fast-tracked the move by the healthcare sector towards implementing emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, blockchain, voice search, chatbots, big data, cloud services, internet of medical things (IoMT), augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), 3D diagnostics and other technological infrastructure to ensure more efficient service delivery.

The Emerging Technologies for Healthcare DigiConference will bring together C-suite executives from leading healthcare institutions across the Middle East & Africa along with global tech players involved in the development and adoption of digital innovation to engage in thought-provoking discussions and share latest best practices, challenges and thought leadership on how the healthcare sector should rise to this new reality.
