NL Digital Health~Holland Pavilion|MEDICA
WELCOME, WILKOMMEN！ Your portal to the Dutch Life Sciences & Health sector. When it comes to Life Sciences & Health, there are plenty of shared challenges with other parts of the world: such as the affordability, accessibility and quality of the care and treatments we provide. The Dutch population is also ageing, people have adopted unhealthy lifestyles, and the prevalence of chronic diseases and health expenditures are increasing. These are developments that have become a reality for many countries around the world. Tackling these requires innovative healthcare concepts and products. Many of these concepts and products are currently being showcased at the virtual.MEDICA 2020!
