About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Our next event for Health Tech leaders in Bath invites inspiring Health Tech pioneers to bring us up to date and look to an AI dominated future. Kindly sponsored by Riviam - Intelligent information for better lives.

You will hear their story and what will grow their success in the next five years. You will learn and we will exchange views on how health tech develops and what direction it should now take.

If health tech is about “enhancing what it means to be human”, how can tech help us to stay healthy and get the right help when we need care? Will AI power the health tech revolution in healthy living, diagnostics, treatment and care? What are its limits? Will robo-carer be able to do it all?
