B2B MATCHMAKING "NEW MANUFACTURING & COMPOSITE PROCESSES"
RWTH Aachen, Aachen
Jul 03, 2019
BUSINESS MEETS SCIENCE: BLOCKCHAIN OPPORTUNITIES FOR HEALTHCARE
BioVille, Diepenbeek
New products and materials require new joining technologies. Identical but also different materials are to be connected with each other. This offers opportunities to conquer new markets with new products and services.
Experts from the Euregio Meuse-Rhine will inform you about proven processes and current trends and challenges in joining technology.
Several companies will present themselves with short presentations (pitches) in which they will also explain their concrete ideas for a cooperation. You will also get to know each other in one-on-one meetings to discuss questions or approaches to solutions in detail.
Please keep in mind: As part of our “Innovation2Market” project we provide financial support for cross-border cooperation!
Use this opportunity to find your perfect match!

Blockchain is being typed as a disruptive technology that will have a major impact on the way we organize ourselves in the future. This seminar will discuss the opportunities of blockchain for the Healthcare sector. We will start with a brief primer on blockchain. Next, we will discuss five opportunities we perceive for blockchain applications within the Healthcare sector. To illustrate this, three Euroregional use cases will be presented. Finally, we will look forward and launch a call for action to design blockchain demonstrators for healthcare, together with you.
