LIFE SCIENCES: THE ENGINE FOR THE RECOVERY AFTER COVID-19
The COVID-19 crisis has been drawing attention to the challenges faced by the already overburdened health systems in many countries and has highlighted the need for sustainable investment in healthcare. At the same time, it also has drawn attention to the need to reshape our systems for the future, reconsidering the roles of hospitals, the potential of telemedicine and health data and the different levels of collaboration between many stakeholders.
But there is more than this, the pandemic has also emphasized the key strategic role that the life sciences sector can play in the future social and economic reconstruction.
Under the lemma «Life sciences: the engine for the recovery after COVID-19», IESE Healthcare 2020 will reflect on the search for a vaccine and a treatment for the disease and it will also bring together top experts from the sector to think about how the different agents in healthcare can work together to continue building a healthier society while also become the economic engine to attract talent, R&D and act as a tractor for the future recovery. We will have a first session on November 19 and a second, on April 13, 2021.
