Fully Booked – 31st August – BioBriefing – The Future of Health

August 31, 2016 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm AEST

The BioMelbourne Network and EY present – The Future of Health

The health sector in Australia is seeing a once in a lifetime transformation. An explosion in big data and mobile health technologies is enabling real-time information creation and analysis. Companies beyond health care as traditionally defined are entering the market, providing new sources of competition and partnering.

These trends are starting to drive a fundamentally different approach for consumers, moving beyond the delivery of health care to the management of health. Players need to be predictive, preemptive, preventative and participatory to remain relevant on a disrupted playing field in 2016.

EY Global Pharmaceutical Sector Leader, Patrick Flochel will host a panel discussion considering:

  • Cost, quality and access challenges: how will these continue to spur global healthcare reform, and what is the likely impact to Australian players?
  • Health care has entered the era of big data: how can Australian players capitalise on this opportunity, and prepare for the risks?
  • Changing regulations and compliance: conducting business in Europe and the US
