Health Data Forum took place on 28 to 29 October in Porto – Portugal,  international healthcare operators have exhibited and showcase their latest product offers in the spacious halls of FMUP, Porto University’s Medical School same campus as Saint John University Hospital. The biggest hospital in the North of Portugal.

This summit brought together leading experts and stakeholders to discuss Data science for healthcare. Over two days, at Health Data Forum all of participants had a chance to discuss and debate the future data and technology solutions that need to be put in place for healthcare systems to meet current and future challenges – enabling better, more informed patient care – and to ensure access for all.

Data scientists, healthcare professionals, patients and governance together must help shape the next generation of healthcare systems if we are to overcome one of the biggest challenges humanity faces today. At this two-day summit, experts shared their views and experiences with the audience to find consensus on how data science can help solve some of the complexity of healthcare delivery.

In the heart of Porto University’s Medical School, the Saint John University Hospital is a state-of-the-art facility with a focus on a team approach to health care. The hospital provides a full range of support for more than 1.4 million inhabitants of the North region of Portugal, and FMUP strives to reinforce these already successful linkages. For this reason, they have chosen to host Health Data Forum in this prestigious facility.
