Doctors 2.0 & You and the Society of Physician Entrepreneurs Announce Partnership

Doctors 2.0 & You5 - 6 June 2014, Paris, France.
Doctors 2.0 & You, the international healthcare social media conference, and SoPe, the Society of Physician Entrepreneurs, a global biomedical and healthcare innovation network to accelerate medical innovation for patients, have announced their partnership to communicate to physician entrepreneurs about the opportunities in digital health. Sharing similar visions regarding the importance of digital health innovation for professionals and patients, Denise Silber, founder of Doctors 2.0 & You conference and an eHealth pioneer and Dr Jeffrey Hausfeld, founder of chairman of the board of SoPe determined that their respective organisations had a mutual interest in initiating a partnership upon the occasion of the 4th Edition of Doctors 2.0 & You taking place in Paris at the Cité Universitaire Internationale on June 5-6, 2014. SoPe will be communicating about the event to its members and delegate a representative to participate.

Represented by dozens of chapters across the US and the world, SoPe is confident in being able to utilise its global physician network to share the cutting-edge news and content that flourishes from Doctors 2.0 & You conferences, essentially helping to get the world out to patients, faster, about the trends and innovations in digital health.

Dr Jeffrey Hausfeld indicated: "The Society of Physician Entrepreneurs is pleased to partner with Doctors 2.0 for the promotion of this important event. Both of our organisations stand at the crossroads of innovation and commercialisation in healthcare and the life sciences. Doctors 2.0 recognizes the significance of enlisting the input and insight of healthcare providers into the development process of new health IT platforms and applications. Physicians understand the unmet need in the daily practice of medicine, and the ability to work with software engineers, coding experts and graphic designers, will allow us to build systems that will engage patients, improve outcomes and transform the delivery of healthcare as we know it. The education provided at Doctors 2.0 conferences will help provide the resources needed to accelerate growth and bring new technology to the marketplace for the benefit of our patients."

Denise Silber added that Doctors 2.0 & You were delighted to learn more about the Society of Physician Entrepreneurs: "Each year at Doctors 2.0 & You, we remark the number of physician innovators and entrepreneurs amongst our new speakers. We are delighted by this new and promising relationship that we are initiating now for the June edition and will pursue for the years to come."
