Digital Twins powered by wearable technologies as the real-time information channel will enhance the human’s potential and augment real-time parameter monitoring and information forecasting. The so-called Metaverse and the direct interaction between humans and the related Digital Twin will be a major driver to act and live more efficiently, to drive prevention in healthcare, and by that reduce the fast-growing healthcare expenses globally. Augmentation means also enabling disabled humans with technology extensions to overcome their burdens - from hearables to intelligent/robotic-based prothesis.

The doctor will call you when you need it without potentially even knowing it – this is a vision the healthcare industry and the WT | Wearable Technologies AG have for now exactly 20 years. While with the advancements in technology, we are making big leaps in this direction, we are not quite there yet. Industry and stakeholders must push technological developments faster and drive the healthcare market towards digitalization. Especially due to the tremendous explosion of healthcare expenses, and the lag of nurses and doctors the demand for technology-enabled healthcare is now more needed than ever. Wearables are a major enabler in this important journey for all humans. Especially European countries such as Germany are years if not even decades behind other countries in the field of utilizing Wearables, healthcare data management, and the willingness of patients as well as doctors to share the data. Let us work together in this session to drive digitalization in one of our most important markets!
