About Morning Health Talks Series
Morning Health Talks is a highly positioned event series in 13 EIT RIS countries, part of the EIT Health RIS Programme. The mission is to develop local healthcare innovation ecosystems through productive stakeholder discussions. Such a dialogue should strengthen relationships and encourage collaborations and definite activities toward more mature ecosystems.
In talks focused on the Innovative Hospital, we try to harness the complexity of the future healthcare system. This future presents its own challenges, many of which are extensions of current concerns but amplified by emerging trends and advancements. E.g. technological disruption improves quality or accessibility but also impacts data privacy and security or creates ethical dilemmas.
Our ultimate objective is to build consensus around the immediate and long-term needs and develop a joint action plan, which would help coordinate and integrate efforts aimed at developing a modern healthcare system at the regional level. Similar efforts are present in many countries and regions; thus, the dialogue, exchange of perspectives, and practices would eventually trigger international collaboration around the topic.

Summary of the previous events
From previous talks, we know that:
- The COVID-19 pandemic permanently changed global health care, from accelerating the adoption of new technology and care delivery models to increasing the focus on sustainability and resiliency.
- The future of health care needs to be organized around the NEEDS of the consumer rather than for the convenience of care providers.
- Hospitals can extend their function from being a service provider to an innovative community builder.
What will you learn?
Following the discussions from the first 2024′ MHT event, on 17th of October we will continue the conversation to focus on:
Innovative Hospital
Enhancing Patient-Cantered Care:
Leveraging Open Innovation for Collaborative Healthcare Transformation.
This talk aims to explore the role of Open Innovation in transforming traditional healthcare systems into innovative, patient-centered models. It will investigate how collaboration between hospitals, technology companies, and patients can drive the integration of advanced technologies such as AI, robotics, telemedicine, and precision medicine into healthcare practices. The discussion will also examine the challenges and opportunities of involving patients directly in the innovation process, emphasizing the importance of data security, privacy, and access in the co-creation of healthcare solutions.
Objectives of the Talk:
- Analyze the current state of Open Innovation in the healthcare sector, with a focus on Poland, and its impact on the development of innovative hospitals (involving the insights from the cohes.ai project.
- Investigate the role of patient engagement and adherence in the context of innovation process and its influences on healthcare outcomes.
- Assess the challenges related to data security, privacy, and access in implementing new healthcare technologies.
- Propose strategies for fostering effective collaboration among stakeholders to enhance the integration of innovative technologies in hospitals.
This thesis would build on the discussion from the first event by deepening the exploration of how patient engagement and collaborative innovation can shape the future of healthcare delivery.
