“Driving Innovations in Health and Healthcare in the Industrial Revolution 4.0”

Health is everything. In a fast rapid changing world, technology plays a vital role in Public health as well as public health care. The Fourth Industrial Revolution encompasses the Internet of Things but goes beyond simple device connectivity toward being an Internet of Everything. At its core are the combination of big data, analytics, and physical technology. Healthcare is an industry where the impact of this fourth revolution is massive. New technology will improve the monitoring of patients, applying personalized treatment plans, and predictive medicine. Emerging technologies will decrease healthcare inequality. Faster and more widespread connectivity, as well as new medical technologies, will allow world-class healthcare to be provided to more people for less money.

It is in this context, the theme will revolve around driving innovations in health and healthcare to provide increasingly enhanced, customized offerings to help meet the needs of individuals and organizations that can adapt and evolve to changing situations and requirements over time.
