Wearable Technology and the Future of Healthcare webinar

Across the world, we are seeing an acceleration of chronic diseases coupled with ageing societies that have longer life-expectancies with more co-morbidities. Consequently, there is a drive for health innovations that help us prevent or diagnosis illness sooner. Wearable technology from smart devices such as watches, etc. have been around for over a decade, but in the past year, they have been the focus both by big tech and the healthcare sector.

Covid-19 has caused an acceleration in the development and piloting of “wearables” to assist not only with fitness and lifestyle changes, but the monitoring of patients particularly after being discharged from hospitals. The expansion of devices and their uses promises to change health and healthcare. In this webinar, we ask a panel of health innovators and leaders to address the question of whether wearables and health-tech directed at consumers/patients is the way forward for better healthcare.
