Accurate data management will enable a significant step towards value-based healthcare. Emerging technologies, such as XR, have proven an effective tool in collecting important patient data, to both analyze a patient’s health as well as foster further innovation in health care. However, managing personal data safely and correctly remains a challenge today.

By bringing together various experts and stakeholders to share insights on this topic, we aim to make a significant contribution to the ongoing discourse on how technology - particularly XR - is impacting data management in the healthcare sector.

Towards EU legislation

The ultimate objective of this gathering is to compile a white paper that communicates the sector’s challenges within this theme, linked to European legislation, to the European Parliament.
