MoMo Athens – April 8th – mHealth Linking 3 Cities

Posted on: April 1, 2013 – Filed under: Athens

We’ve said it before and we’ll repeat it one more time. mHealth and all its derivatives are hot in the mobile sector. Everyone is interested in the future of mHealth, apps, ideas, inventions, who will benefit and how the ecosystem will get over all the obvious obstacles the sector beholds. The stakeholders are many… Pharmaceuticals, Doctors, Hospitals, Patients, Organisations and the barriers even more…policies, FDA, data protection and so on.

Linking 3 Cities

There is a shift. Something is happening in Greece; tech savvy medical professionals are trying to make a change or at least open up a conversation on the eHealth status in Greece. A conversation we want to listen in to. So next Monday, 8th of April 2013 we will be linking live with #opnHealth hosts TEDxNijmegen. MoMoAth will be hosting it’s own simulcast with Nijmegen for the TEDx and a second link with Thessaloniki, from 9:00 am in the morning till dawn.

The speaker line up from both cities is very impressive; TEDxNijmegen has planned over 20 speakers, while #opnHealth has signed on a few important players in Greece. George Dafoulas is an old acquaintance to MoMoAth, from when he presented his app during our last mHealth event. So, is Nikos Papachristou a speaker, in the previously mentioned event, and co-organiser for the #opnHealth event in Thessaloniki. Let’s not also forget Kathy Apostolidis who supports MoMoAth and is an patient rights advocate.

So join us next Monday at coLab Workspace Petraki 28, Athens 1st Floor, after 9am. It’s an all day event, so you’re welcome to join during the day. We will watch the simulcasts and chat over the topic of mHealth.

Vidavo

Meanwhile, we will have a little ‘mHealth’ treat for our visitors by supporting company Vidavo. They’ll be there with their telemonitoring devices to measure your blood pressure and other metrics and show you what the company is doing over the mobile.
