  • Key figures such as Ignasi Belda and Michel Poulain will head the IX Forum RIES 2024

On 13th and 14th November, Guitiriz will host the 9th edition of the RIES 2024 Forum, an event that has established itself as a benchmark in the field of health and innovation. With just one month to go before the event, registration is already open and the participation of leading personalities who will lead discussions on the future of the sector is expected. Key figures confirmed for this edition include:

  • Ignasi Belda, director of the Spanish Agency for the Supervision of Artificial Intelligence (AESIA), will offer an insight into the impact of artificial intelligence in the healthcare sector. Belda is a benchmark in the field of AI applied to healthcare, and his participation in RIES 2024 will provide an insight into how this technology will revolutionise diagnosis, treatment and healthcare management in the coming years.
  • Michel Poulain, enowned demographer and expert in the study of global longevity zones (Blue Zones). His approach, based on the analysis of factors that favour a longer and healthier life, will provide a unique perspective on the demographic challenges facing health systems in Europe and the world. Poulain has been instrumental in identifying areas of the planet where people are living significantly longer, and his knowledge will be instrumental in exploring strategies to promote healthy ageing.
  • Iria Rodríguez Cobo, Head of the Data Office of the National Health System (SNS), Ministry of Health, who will bring his experience in health data management and its role in the implementation of public policies based on innovation and efficiency. Rodríguez Cobo has played a key role in the digitisation and optimisation strategy for health information in Spain.
  • Mariano González Gómez, Senior Advisor at Dubai Health, a leading international healthcare institution, who will contribute his experience in innovation and management of healthcare services in large urban areas. His participation will contribute to a better understanding of global healthcare models and opportunities for collaboration between Europe and the Middle East.

In addition to these figures, #RIES24 will bring together international experts in innovation, technology and health from both the public and private sectors, creating a space for dialogue and reflection on the challenges and opportunities of the future of healthcare. An estimated 300 attendees in total are expected to attend.
