research2guidance & HIMSS to present controversial preliminary results of European App Developer Study at mHealth Summit Europe 2015. For the first time the study also focuses on the Europe's readiness for mHealth solutions. Together with HIMSS, research2guidance is working on distinguishing which countries are accessible for app developers due to their high eHealth acceptance and favourable regulations and which European countries are still reluctant to embrace mHealth. During the session "Workshop from Garge to Market" at the mHealth Summit Europe on 12 May, the findings will be presented for the first time and establish Europe's readiness for mHealth solutions.

Preliminary findings provide interesting results regarding the mHealth market attractiveness and readiness:

  • Denmark proves to be the leading country in eHealth adoption, followed by Finland and Spain
  • Germany ranks within the top three both for worst and best market conditions for the adoption of mHealth apps mainly due to prohibitive laws

Full results will be revealed on Tuesday 12th May during the mHealth Summit Europe in Riga, Latvia. Learn first-hand who is at the forefront and who is lagging behind the 100,000+ apps already available on the market. Over the two day conference, research2guidance will be joined by twenty-four mHeath IT experts with an exciting programme of presentations.
