Organised by the centre itself, which has run the event for more than two decades, it combines a large conference of more than 450 sessions, including over 70 in English, with a trade exhibition of around 200 exhibitors. The programme is rooted in the Nordic model of public healthcare and welfare, covering AI and ethics, digital infrastructure, health data management, welfare technology and person-centred care, and draws around 7,000 participants and 700 speakers. ## What Vitalis is and who it is for Vitalis is where the Nordic public-health system works through its digital transformation. It is built for the people who run and digitise care across the region: clinical leaders, social-services managers, policymakers, researchers and the healthtech vendors and start-ups serving them. The Nordic framing is the point. The programme treats digital health as a question of public welfare and person-centred care rather than a purely commercial market, which gives it a distinct character among European digital health events and makes it the reference gathering for the Nordic eHealth community. ## Who attends Vitalis - Healthcare professionals and clinical leaders - Social-services and welfare managers - Health and care policymakers - Digital health and IT innovators - Healthtech start-ups and vendors - Researchers in health informatics and welfare technology - Public-sector health decision-makers ## What Vitalis covers programmatically The conference is organised into thematic tracks: - Artificial intelligence and ethics in healthcare - Digital infrastructure and strategy - Person-centred care and innovation - Equality of care - Health data management - FemTech - Crisis preparedness and sustainable transformation - Welfare technology and life science ## Programme tracks and special formats Vitalis runs more than 450 sessions across parallel tracks, including over 70 English-language sessions, alongside a trade exhibition and a digital access pass that gives remote attendees recorded content. ## FAQ · Identity and audience ### Is Vitalis a Swedish event or a Nordic one? It is held in Sweden but functions as the Nordic eHealth gathering, drawing participants from across the Nordic health and welfare systems and a growing international audience. Its identity is explicitly the Nordic model of digital health. ### How does Vitalis differ from HIMSS Europe or DMEA? Vitalis is rooted in the Nordic public-health and welfare approach, with strong representation from social services and person-centred care, not only hospital IT.
