Patient centricity - opportunity or threat?

 
Dear Member and Friend of Swiss HLG

In principle, the patient is at the heart of every healthcare related activity. However, patient centricity has been ignored for a long time by the healthcare industries whilst nowadays becoming more & more important, if not critical. Traditional players have been “forced” for various reasons - including increasing patient consumerism - to re-shape their business model from product-centricity towards patient centricity to keep their competitive edge. In addition, healthcare ecosystem will be more & more influenced by non-traditional players such as IT, Patient organizations, etc…

Hence, what does this mean for business development? What are the opportunities for new type of collaborations & alliances driven by deeper integration & a wider variety of partners? Is it an opportunity or a threat for business development and deal-making?

Our 2016 annual Winter Conference will examine how patient centricity affects BD&L within healthcare organizations & how such organizations are handling it from various perspectives. We will explore ways in which the BD&L community could support this heavy trend.

In 2016, the Winter Conference will take place for the first time at Jugendstil-Hotel Paxmontana, an inspiring location in the heart of Switzerland. We will have the opportunity to network and exchange ideas in a completely privatized environment. We are convinced that it is the perfect place for our event and we invite you to be part of it!

We look forward to meeting you in person.
