WISH 2015

The second World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) took place on 17-18 February 2015 at the Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC).

Seven forums were established for WISH 2015. Each forum was chaired by a recognized expert in their field who led a working group of experts drawn from government, academia, and industry. At the summit, each forum published and presented a detailed report aimed at policy makers and healthcare innovators that outlined solutions and offered evidence-based recommendations. Meanwhile, an interactive gallery at the summit provided an insight into cutting-edge healthcare innovations.
