Regulators and health tech pioneers, sign up now to discover new ways to adapt to the speed of digital innovation in healthcare.
The past year unlocked the potential for telehealth and at-home tech-facilitated medicine to secure a permanent role in the world's new normal. A number of companies delivered virtual care to patients using technology driven approaches. But long before March 2020, new ways in which people receive and consume care have been happening across the industry. The pandemic was just a catalyst that accelerated an additional wave of health tech innovation, and now both regulators and health tech companies must adapt quickly.
While it's understandably hard to keep up with a rapid influx of new products, there is an acute need to guide patients on what services are trustworthy, which information is most accurate, and the right technology to use.
As health tech's role in how we stay healthy becomes more significant, regulators and health tech pioneers must uncover more thoughtful strategies for adjusting to the speed of health tech innovation.
On Thursday, July 29, Healthy.io will host a free, 45-minute virtual event to discuss how health tech innovators and regulators can work together to navigate this new era of medical progress and deliver satisfactory clinical-grade healthcare.

Topics will feature:
- Cutting-edge health tech and business opportunities on the horizon

- How health tech companies should approach regulatory standards
- Promising avenues for collaboration and smart reform
