Location: IHC House, 65 Promenade, Davos

On January 21st, EBC will take part in a roundtable titled ‘The $11+ Trillion Care Economy: Steps for Investors, Boardrooms, and AI‘ at the IHC House. The session will explore brain health as a defining care example, with new models emerging in MENA, Asia and beyond that are increasingly intertwined with caregiving best practices in cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It will examine Al and digital health’s impact across these disease areas, where breakthroughs in early detection, remote monitoring and personalised treatment are moving from pilot to scale. Participants will assess which innovations have achieved meaningful clinical and financial results, and confront the hard barriers that remain: workforce shortages that technology alone cannot solve, fragmented data systems that prevent care coordination, and payment models that still reward volume over value.

The discussion will identify what must change in investment strategy, regulatory policy and organizational design to unlock the $11 trillion care economy’s potential for patients, providers and payers alike.
