Susie just spent three insightful and super inspiring days at the 46th IHF World Hospital Congress held by the International Hospital Federation in Lisbon. Joining around 1400 amazing hospital leaders from 91 countries.
Susie was selected as a speaker with the headline “No successful innovation (in healthcare) without implementation”. A hot topic that fills the minds of many leaders and healthcare professionals globally who are working on transforming healthcare by implementing more technology in order to solve, among others, the challenge of staff shortages, securing high quality delivery of healthcare now and in the future and making healthcare more sustainable.
The congress was characterized by thought leaders and high-quality sessions with high level speakers and participants from both public and private healthcare systems.
