“Germany has started its digital transformation journey.”

In this episode of Voices from the Think Tank “Democratizing Health Data”, Angela Ahrendt shares her key takeaway.

Germany has already started its digital transformation journey. There’s strong commitment within German hospitals to move forward, to learn from digitally mature healthcare systems, and to truly leverage digitalisation.

  • Digitalisation must work for both patients and healthcare professionals.
  • Empowered healthcare professionals will be the ones to confidently use data to improve care and drive transformation.
  • Learning from international best practices is essential for Germany’s next step in healthcare digitalisation.

Organized by Lemonmint in Berlin, this Think Tank gathered healthcare leaders, innovators, and experts to explore how health data can drive meaningful change. With a keynote by Prof. Ronen Loebstein (Sheba Medical Center), the discussion focused on practical approaches, shared experiences, and new ideas for turning data into value.

Angela Ahrendt is a Senior Director of Healthcare and Lifesciences within the Strategic Communications division at FTI Consulting. She is also a contributor to Lemonmint’s Digital Maturity Initiative, for which she has provided the chapter “Strengthening the Healthcare Workforce to Achieve Digital Maturity at Scale” to the book Digital Maturity in Hospitals (Springer, 2025).
