What to Expect!
EIT Health's "Morning Health Talks" on June 3 will discuss why mindset and culture are more crucial than technology and money in driving healthcare innovation. Experts from policy, startups, and healthcare institutions will discuss the key resources, barriers, and motivations shaping innovation adoption. Real-life insights from Lithuania and Portugal will highlight what enables successful collaboration in health ecosystems. The event will close with an action-oriented roundtable and networking to foster meaningful connections.
