Health 2.0 April 5, 2010

he Health 2.0 Conference is the leading showcase of online and mobile technologies in healthcare. After 5 successful conferences in the United States, we’re coming across the pond!

The agenda will span the key elements of Health 2.0 and showcase how consumers and professionals:

Search for more appropriate health content,
Share personal information in Communities and
Use Tools to self-manage and enhance the patient-physician relationship
You will gain unique insight into the following questions:

How does specialized Search relate to Health 2.0? Is there life beyond Google in Europe?
Are online patient communities different in Europe and across European countries?
Have European doctors gone 2.0?
Are personal health records being adopted by health care systems in Europe?
How do European hospitals, payors and governments relate to Health 2.0?
What opportunities exist for Pharma to play a bigger role in Health 2.0?

Health 2.0 Europe will be a unique conference. We will integrate the best of European health technologies, and compare, contrast and contextualize them with leading examples of Health 2.0 from North America. We’ll be seeing:

What works in the context of Europe’s evolving health care systems,
Whether there are commonalities across European systems that can lead to economies of scale (or not!) and
What the “boundary-less” online world means for consumers and physicians working in distinct health care systems.
There’ll also be a presentation of the latest thinking about Health 2.0 in the European context, special videos, an unconference session, the introduction of new companies at Health 2.0 Europe’s Launch!, a great networking party at a very famous Parisian institution, and much, much more to keep you very stimulated for a day and a half.

Oh, and did we mention that it’s in Paris in the Springtime?
