Information-driven healthcare in Sweden and Finland, online
As a country with high levels of digitalization and innovation, Sweden has considerable potential for adopting AI solutions in healthcare. Due to demographic challenges of an aging population, the increased prevalence of chronic diseases, as well as a lack of access to skilled health care professionals, solutions that can help health care providers offer better quality care in a more efficient manner are highly needed.
In Finland, the AI Ecosystem in social and health services (SOTE) has implemented several projects across Finland, where AI-based solutions have been used to facilitate healthcare workers’ day work, improve preventive care, and more.
Join us for a webinar where we will explore opportunities and challenges to the implementation of AI in healthcare in Sweden and Finland.
Time: 7 October, 2025, 10:00 — 11:30 (Finnish time)
Place: MS Teams
Participation is free of charge, but registration is required.
