16th Healthcare Forum, September 2-4, 2025, Karpacz
Modern healthcare faces numerous challenges — systemic, financial, technological, and social. That is why today, more than ever, we need a space for substantive dialogue, exchange of experiences, and the development of shared strategies that can genuinely improve the quality of healthcare. For the past 16 years, such a space has been the Health Protection Forum, an integral part of the Economic Forum — the largest and most prestigious political and economic conference in Central and Eastern Europe.
Each year, the Forum brings together hundreds of opinion leaders, healthcare experts, representatives of national and local governments, international institutions, as well as academia, business, and patient organizations. This unique event unites diverse perspectives — from doctors and healthcare facility managers to representatives of the pharmaceutical industry, technological innovators, and policymakers. Their common goal is to seek effective, sustainable, and modern solutions for the healthcare systems in Poland and across Europe.
The Health Protection Forum is not only about panel discussions and keynote speeches — it is also a platform that exerts real influence on the direction of reforms, a place where differing views converge, and where concrete recommendations, strategies, and best practices are developed.
