Medi'Nov Connection Spain - Day 1 An intense first day at the Medi'Nov Connection Spain exhibition by First Connection, where I had the chance to attend some very interesting conferences: 🌍 "Connecting the Dots: Barcelona Health Hub and Catalonia's Digital Health" by Marja Huiskamp. The Barcelona Health Hub is implementing an international strategy that allows actors from around the world to connect to this network, aiming for the development and implementation of health innovative solutions globally. With over 500 members in just 5 years, BHH aims to become the leading hub in Europe. 🧠 "Explainable AI for Non-Invasive Screening of Infant Meningitis" by Javier Jiménez, CEO of Kriba. Kriba offers a non-invasive medical device that enables the early detection of serous body fluids infections. Thanks to their solution, they prevent fatal risks and severe consequences for children with meningitis. This presentation highlighted how Kriba addresses the black-box effect of some solutions through their explainability method. I learned that for building their algorithms, quality data is more important than quantity. 🔐 "When Data Breaches (and Their Consequences) Lurk" by Mónica Salas, CTO & Co-founder of GuardedBox. Through her very practical and illustrated presentation, I understood that cybersecurity risks are mainly related to human actions. You can implement all cybersecurity measures, but if your password is on a post-it on your computer, the risk remains. She also addressed potential threats from artificial intelligence and quantum computing. It was a good overview of the existing and upcoming threats. Finally, I attended and voted for the pitch contest with: Aspivix and their solution ending the use of the tenaculum in gynecology. Tenaculum was created during the Civil War to extract bullets, giving you an idea of how much this tool is painful. Ephion Health and their seamless platform that collects data from different 3rd party wearables to produce digital biomarkers on patient mobility. Kriba and their non-invasive AI solution detecting serous body fluids infections. Medicsen and their connected insulin delivery device, eliminating the need for needles. Medinbox and their packaged tool solution that allows doctors and medical teams to easily record procedures and transmit them live in HD wherever there is an internet connection. NURA TECHNOLOGY SL and their connected glasses monitoring patients with glaucoma. Rethink Medical SL. and their urinary catheter device improving the quality of life for patients and enhancing safety and work efficiency for nursing staff. I am eager to see who will win the contest. Thank you to Olivia Higueras from Medicatoria and Samer JOUDIEH from MEDLAB - ICARE Groupe for exchanges about innovation in medical desert and data strategies in emergent countries. Let's meet tomorrow to talk about #SOPHiAUNITY by SOPHiA GENETICS and data regulatory strategy.

Most issues and opportunities boil down to supply and demand. In the US, over 22% of the population are Latinos, there are over 40M Spanish speakers - of which many would prefer to receive medical attention in Spanish. But less than 1% of physicians can communicate well in Spanish. MiSalud Health marries culturally-attuned care technology nearshore talent to provide more accessible healthcare in the US. This article speaks to how MiSalud Health's physician co-pilot automates many of the administrative tasks so the health coaches and physicians can focus on more MiSalud members.
