The second edition of Healthcare Week Luxembourg (HWL) took place at Luxexpo The Box on Tuesday 1 and Wednesday 2 October 2024, bringing together 3,000 professionals from the Greater Region's healthcare sector.
In addition to conferences, round tables and debates, the event was an opportunity to reward four innovative projects with the HWL Awards 2024.
The winners were:
- Medical Research: Centre François Baclesse with "Aprilux"
- Innovation in Hospital Management: Centre Hospitalier de Luxembourg (CHL) with "Escape Game"
- Start-up Greater Region: Prostperia with "PROSTia"
- Start-up Luxembourg: MDSim with "SPINEsim".
"The second HWL proved to be an excellent international platform for discussing the future of healthcare systems," said Dr Philippe Turk, President of the Luxembourg Hospital Federation (FHL). "The conference highlighted the pivotal role of digital technologies in transforming healthcare, but also the crucial impact of interprofessional collaboration. Indeed, it is through dialogue that we will be able to exploit the innovations to the full, with the common aim of placing the patient, his or her care pathway and above all prevention at the heart of our vision for the future."
Building on the success of this year's event, the FHL and Quinze Mai announced that the third edition of Healthcare Week Luxembourg will take place on 1 and 2 October 2025.
