6th Nordic Conference on eHealth and Telemedicine
Helsinki, Finland
The very first Nordic Conference on Telemedicine took place in Finland in 1996 at the time when telemedicine was an emerging discipline. Since then, the conference has rotated biannually in all the Nordic Countries, which have been the early pioneers in healthcare ICT development. The event has also given a basis for the Nordic Telemedicine Association, which was founded to foster co-operation in the field of telehealth as a federation of national organisations.
