8 December 2016, Brussels, Belgium.
This year's COCIR eHealth Summit is under the umbrella of the European Commission's European Summit on Digital Innovation for Active and Healthy Ageing (5-8 Dec 2016, Brussels). The event builds on the outcomes of previous COCIR eHealth Summits looking at Big Data and the role of eHealth in delivering Integrated Care.

Industry needs to demonstrate the value of Digital Health Innovation in delivering Integrated Care. Information on the value of solutions will define innovative business models, broadening and accelerating eHealth uptake.

The Summit will advance the multi-stakeholder dialogue, jointly analysing the challenges of scaling up Digital Health solutions and how best to evaluate its impact.

The event will let policymakers, academia, civil society and the eHealth industry develop a shared vision on the value of Digital Health Innovation to Europe.

The panel discussions and the exchange of expert views will fuel the wider debate on the digital transformation of health care and address the challenges posed by Europe's ageing society.
