Detta evenemang samlar nordiska forskare, yrkesverksamma och beslutsfattare för att diskutera hur digital hälso- och välfärdsteknologi kan utvecklas och införas på ett hållbart, kunskapsbaserat och långsiktigt robust sätt. Initiativet syftar till att stärka en framväxande nordisk forskningsgemenskap samt främja nya samarbeten över ämnesgränser, sektorer och länder.
