Kuopio Health Insights 2023 (KHI 2023) is an event tailor-made for healthcare professionals and health industry business leaders who believe in the power of collaboration and its ability to ignite innovation, enhance business development and ultimately create positive health outcomes for people all over the world.

But we don’t just want to show you what makes our ecosystem work. We want you to become part of it.

At Kuopio Health we focus on today's most relevant health challenges, trends and opportunities by providing access to data, experts, capabilities and projects within our network. Our specialties include data-driven healthcare, preventive health care, smart health solutions, effectiveness research and real-world health data insights coupled with the ability to connect relevant partners and implement ideas and innovations quickly, as well as forge a clear path towards commercial applications.

Our ecosystem is backed by an active alliance of public and private organisations with high competence in business, international expertise, R&D and research excellence. This gives us the ability to attract highly diverse operators with importance placed on understanding their varying interests and perspectives, which helps us to build bridges and accelerate collaboration resulting in true co-innovation.

Our open environment is one in which success stories, learnings and even failures can be shared freely. We are committed to continually improving our ecosystem whether it be quicker and easier access to experts and test environments or by offering new ways to network and collaborate. We actively engage with professionals across the health spectrum in mutually-beneficial ways and invest time and energy not in what is, but in what can be.

We also draw inspiration from Kuopio (our home) and its surrounding, restorative natural beauty, as well as the highly sophisticated infrastructure and modern business environment of Savilahti, which we believe foster both a connection to our planet and the culture of collaboration and co-innovation that fuels our work.
