Redesign Care and Drive Clinical Impact
at the Forefront of Technology
The Patient Journey Summit returns to Lisbon for its second edition, bringing together healthcare leaders, clinicians, and innovators to explore how we can redesign care and drive real clinical impact through technology.
After laying the groundwork for digital patient journeys last year, weʼre now going deeper — focusing on proven results, smarter workflows, and the real-world impact of technology in clinical settings. From AI-powered tools to team optimization, this yearʼs summit is about what works, why it matters, and how to scale it.
Join us at the forefront of healthcare innovation — and be part of the movement thatʼs reshaping care around patients and outcomes.
