Keynote
Navigating 21st century healthcare
Future developments in healthcare and the resulting opportunities for pharma
Dr. sc. Stephan Sigrist, Founder and Head of W.I.R.E.
The pharma industry faces rising demands: increasing disease complexity calls for more precise, personalized therapies, while global healthcare cost pressures demand greater efficiency. Digitalization offers new opportunities not only in treatment but also in production. AI can optimize processes via digital twins, improve supply chains, and align production with demand. To realize this, we need quality-assured data, resilient infrastructure, and a clear understanding of AI capabilities – shaping the path to future production.
