XPOMET©

As modern healthcare becomes increasingly personalized and data-driven, traditional healthcare is being transformed into a dynamic, multi-layered and highly connected global ecosystem. New players, such as medical entrepreneurs and tech giants like Apple, Amazon, Google and IBM Watson are continuing to expose and challenge the current healthcare market by providing innovative digital products and know-how. Digital health offers both—a suite of new capabilities and new approaches that unlock health(care) from constraints of time, place, distance and knowledge. It opens up entirely new ways to address and understand people and their health needs. This is how XPOMET© was born, and has been continuously growing as a platform, that is dedicated to innovative trends in medicine and care and at the same time creates a community that promotes cultural change in the healthcare industry. In 2019, the XPOMET© Medicinale has become an international event to showcase best practice, highlight trends in global healthcare and forecast future developments in health and tech. The book offers a broad collection of the extensive knowledge of contributors to the XPOMET© Medicinale 2019. International experts share their novel ideas, challenges and achievements in the global healthcare market. The reader is invited to join in the XPOMET© community’s vision and to be inspired by the latest discoveries and technological know-how in healthcare.
