The Future of Healthcare in a Changing Europe

The Executive Dialogue is designed as an interactive format where everybody is a speaker. In addition to panel discussions and roundtables, our audience moderators, and interactive elements will facilitate open exchange and collective insight.

11:00-12:00Executive Workshop | Strategic Value-Based Procurement (followed by lunch)
 
Under Denmark’s Strategy for Life Science towards 2030, the Government is advancing a data-driven model for value-based procurement to accelerate innovation uptake in the healthcare system.

In this focused session, Lars Allerup — co-author of the model — will outline how procurement can function as a strategic governance tool aligned with the Danish healthcare reform. The framework links purchasing decisions to documented patient outcomes, quality improvements and workforce efficiency, supporting the adoption of labour-saving and innovation-driven solutions.

The workshop concludes with lunch and peer-level exchange.
