A highly curated event, gathering ecosystem leaders - founders, C-Suite executives and senior government and academic thought leaders and change makers - to discuss next frontier of innovation in health and life sciences.
Witnessing Health Innovation Growth
Frontiers Health was founded in 2015 and celebrated its first global edition in 2016 in Berlin, which hosted the event until 2019. After a mainly virtual experience in 2020, amid the pandemic peak, with connected hubs from European countries and representations from the U.S. and Far East, the conference moved to Milan, Italy, where the next two global editions were held.
Over the years Frontiers Health has enriched its offerings with highly curated and innovative content, large ecosystem participation and international standing, both in presence and remotely.
Our conference is designed to provide a unique platform to learn, exchange and, get inspired. The audience reflects the multifaceted ecosystem of health innovation: pharmaceutical and technology companies, startups and scale ups, investment funds, foundations and non profits, patient associations and scientific societies.
Building on the success of previous editions, Frontiers Health brings together over 800 delegates from 45 countries, spanning the full health innovation ecosystem.
A frontier is a border between what is known and unknown. At Frontiers Health we look for those that are pushing the boundaries. Gathering the change-makers within large organizations and the entrepreneurs building new ones – all of which are moving the healthcare ecosystem into the future with new and novel solutions. Our content strategy embodies this ethos.
Frontiers Health content is built upon a foundation of four key strategic pillars. Every keynote, fire side chat, panel or deep dive we bring to our audience each year ladders up to at least one or more of these areas.
Cutting-edge technologies are critical to the transformation of the entire healthcare landscape. Artificial intelligence is one of the most recent – and impactful – accelerants. AI is helping to unlock previously inaccessible insights from data in R&D, wearable devices, remote diagnostics, and virtual care, bringing personalized solutions to people wherever they need them. From pioneering new technologies to validating innovative concepts to fostering discourse on emerging fields like quantum computing or brain-computer interfaces, we are dedicated to empowering the visionaries who are propelling our industry into the next era.
As digital innovation and new therapeutic modalities begin to show promise, we’re seeing a new focus on value creation from investors, healthcare systems, and patients. The days of “growth at all costs” are over. Any new solution must deliver on its promises to address unmet needs for patients and HCPs – while also achieving meaningful revenue and profitability for investors and shareholders to keep thriving and ensure broader access. At Frontiers Health, we bring to the forefront innovations that are setting a higher standard for value across the board within healthcare systems around the globe. Sharing those learnings with the global audience is our mission to help enable a sustainable future for healthcare.
We know that the best inventions happen because someone (patient, doctor, mom) sees a gap in the market and sets out to fill it. Patients and HCPs play crucial roles as designers of healthcare solutions that solve the biggest challenges. It’s up to the wider ecosystem of investors, life sciences companies, healthcare systems, payers, and policy leaders to help scale their concepts and reach the individuals who need them most. At Frontiers Health, we help shine a light on the most promising solutions to facilitate the widespread systemic adoption of them to improve health outcomes globally.
Unless innovative therapies and modalities are accessible to all who need them, the job of the health innovator is not done. It’s one thing to design an effective solution; it’s another to get it into the hands of the right patients. We know that achieving health equity will require a commitment from public and private institutions working together. This means successful collaborations between policymakers, NGOs, industry, community leaders, HCPs, regulators, payers, and more. Our mission is to bring these essential parties together to help chart a path toward a more equitable, person-centric future in healthcare.
Our speakers represent the entire health innovation ecosystem, including industry champions, innovators, scientists, physicians, patients, investors, and CEOs of leading start-up companies.
Our Curators, Ambassadors, and Speakers serve as the intellectual architects and strategic catalysts of Frontiers Health, driving the collaborative engine that transforms global innovation into actionable healthcare insights. This collective of visionary leaders bridges the gap between emerging trends and real-world impact, ensuring the conference remains at the forefront of the industry’s evolution.
