Challenging trends
Healthcare is facing unprecedented levels of change. Beyond the immediate demands arising from Covid-19 there is ongoing pressure from demographic, social and economic trends – an ageing society, rising chronic disease and constrained resources for health services. And health systems need to be responsive to “known-unknowns” such as climate change and anti-microbial resistance.
Standing still is not an option. Healthcare leaders need to rethink the way services are designed and delivered, and how technology value chains interact and generate opportunities. New thinking is being driven by four interconnected trends:
- Growing digital connectivity and digital transformation.
- A revolution in data availability and data analytics.
- The growing focus on value rather than cost, leading to new models of payment and reimbursement.
- The “new patient” – informed, empowered, increasingly engaged in the co-production of innovations.
While they offer huge opportunities, this landscape poses challenges to different players in the health system. Technology developers and suppliers, healthcare funders and providers, policy-makers – and us as healthcare users – need to respond. Relationships in value chains are being reshaped, new ideas about wellness are emerging. A different healthcare ecosystem is being built.
Throughout the course we examine how these forces play out at two levels:
- Coordinating innovation and change across the value chain
- Managing and strategizing around innovation

Who should attend?
EHIMP attracts participants from all areas of the healthcare value chain and guides them towards greater innovative and entrepreneurial thinking to plan and deliver health services to meet emerging global needs. The programme is aimed at health leaders who can affect innovation in their workplaces, such as executives who are at or progressing towards C-suite level at a health provider, authority or insurer, or health professionals in leading roles.
The programme is also targeted at policymakers and senior leaders from health industries such as pharma, med-tech, and IT, who are influential in the sector's innovation.
Learning objectives
- Understand the driving forces of change in healthcare, the emerging challenges, and the innovation needs and processes in health systems.
- Engage with and challenge participants from different backgrounds and cultures across the health sector to gain new insight into your own business or organisation.
- Identify new opportunities for innovation and change within and across health sector organisations, including your own.
- Improve your innovative and entrepreneurial thinking.
