Event Description
Are you intrigued by the Internet of Things (IoT)? How this buzzing environment is developing and what it can offer for your business?
The IoT is the network of physical objects or “things” embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data. It has many possible applications, one of which is healthcare and medical devices. Forbes reported recently that there is a $117 billion market for IoT in healthcare by 2020 [1]. These, and other promising applications, makes IoT hugely attractive for a new start-up generation.
Despite the large interest in IoT, many aspects are unclear and many medtech entrepreneurs are interested in what IoT can offer for their business.
In this event we aim to discuss the potential of IoT in healthcare and medical devices including pitfalls and challenges. We invited three experts to provide a thorough background as well as three companies/start-ups that are operating in this space.
