ICT&health World Conference 2026
Tuesday 27 till Thursday 29 January 2026
Shaping the Future of Healthcare
The transformation of healthcare is accelerating, and nowhere is this more evident than at the ICT&health World Conference 2026. From January 27 to 29, we will open the doors of MECC Maastricht for a three-day international conference, bringing together the most influential policymakers, executives, healthcare professionals, innovators, and tech experts.
With a programme that goes beyond vision, we bring relevant innovations to life. From practical technologies to smarter care models, we strengthen the role of healthcare professionals and connect the sector’s frontrunners to achieve real breakthroughs together.
The question is no longer if healthcare will change, but how fast you will adapt.
Don't miss out!
Location: Forum 100, 6229 GV Maastricht
Registration for this event is unavailable.
Information
From vision to impact: building the future of healthcare together
The future of healthcare requires more than innovation alone. It requires vision, coordination and structural action. The ICT&health World Conference 2026 is the leading European and international platform for healthcare transformation. It brings together professionals, policymakers, executives, supervisors, researchers, startups and investors from all over the world to shape a sustainable healthcare future.
The Netherlands plays a pivotal role within Europe. With forward-looking policies on data, digital ethics and interoperability, the country helps set the standard for tomorrow’s healthcare. From the European Health Data Space to new funding models and global interoperability standards, the Dutch and European approach provides scalable solutions that address worldwide needs. Yet transformation does not stop at regional borders. That is why ICT&health 2026 is more than a European event. It is an open, global platform where collaboration across continents leads to meaningful impact, shared innovation and systemic change.
For three days, Maastricht will be the international meeting point for strategic dialogue, practical solutions and cross-border collaboration in healthcare.
What makes this conference different
Healthcare systems everywhere face the same challenges: ageing populations, workforce shortages, digital acceleration and increasing complexity. Pilot projects and isolated solutions are no longer enough. A new, integrated approach is needed – where policy, financing, regulation, implementation and innovation strengthen each other.
That is what makes ICT&health 2026 unique. No silos. No speculation. This is where ethical AI meets diagnostics, where public funding connects with private implementation, and where cross-border collaboration becomes tangible progress.
What to expect
More than 150 sessions – keynotes, deep dives and live demonstrations – with speakers from policy, practice, academia and industry. Three days of knowledge, strategy and inspiration, showing how vision and technology come together in real-world solutions.
Key topics include:
- The Netherlands and Europe’s leading role in healthcare transformation, data policy and digital ethics, in collaboration with international partners.
- Practical applications in radiology, surgery, digital pathology, elderly care and remote care.
- Proven solutions in AI, value-based healthcare and digital infrastructure.
- Strategic sessions on governance, financing, procurement and regulation.
- Addressing workforce shortages, digital skills and smarter processes to reduce pressure on professionals.
- International collaboration and policy impact: from the European Health Data Space to global standards.
- The ICT&health Award 2026 – celebrating transformative, impactful developments in healthcare.
And this is only the beginning.
Who should attend?
ICT&health 2026 is designed for everyone who carries responsibility for the future of care. Whether you are a healthcare executive, nurse, clinician, policymaker, developer, IT specialist, researcher or civil servant – if you are building better healthcare, this is the place to be. The conference offers new insights for your field, practical tools for implementation, and direct access to the people that matter.
