“Metaverse meets Health” in Hagen
The “Metaverse meets Health” event in Hagen was a great success, to which both the partners and the exhibitors from the network contributed significantly. The key topics surrounding XR, the metaverse and artificial intelligence in healthcare were examined in depth and discussed in exciting panel discussions.
The program was particularly enriched by the short pitches from the exhibitors, including Noel Ludwig from 3spin Learning, Kristin-Jasmin Stelzer from ANIMA RES, Bernhard Baer from baermedia GmbH & Co KG, Alexander Müller from data experts gmbh and many more. Each of them contributed to the diversity of the event with valuable contributions and helped to provide a comprehensive insight into innovative solutions.
There was so much interest in the demo stations at the Immersive Collaboration Hub that the guests barely had time to eat. People tried things out, exchanged ideas and the atmosphere was inspiring throughout.
The importance of such events became clear once again, particularly through the cooperation with partners such as Healthcare Shapers, the FernUniversität in Hagen, the ZTG Zentrum für Telematik und Telemedizin GmbH and Virtuelles Krankenhaus NRW gGmbH. Psychological issues, such as the optimal involvement of doctors and patients, were also addressed.
The exchange on how companies, clinics and solution providers can approach challenges in an interdisciplinary manner was also an important topic. Ultimately, it is clear that taking a bold look at digitalization in the healthcare sector is crucial to successfully implementing innovations in practice.
