    Wednesday November 18, 09.00-10.00 hours (UK time)

    The big enigma. Mass-scale innovation is rapidly building new giants such as Ping An in China. The government has allowed the for-profit sector to grow fast but China remains a tough market for western investors. Will the new model be one in which Chinese investors buy expertise abroad and import it to China? This session is a wide-ranging exploration with expert advisors, investors and operators on how they see the region changing.

    Wednesday November 18, 11.00-12.00 hours (UK time)

    By far Europe's largest market, Germany, Austria and Switzerland offer unique opportunities. But how fast is the German outpatient sector changing? What sectors are investable? How squeezed are hospitals in Germany and Switzerland? And will a new Austrian government lead to better prospects?

    The Russian state remains supportive of the for-profit health care sector which continues to grow fast. Elsewhere the sector is also growing fast across Ukraine and in many of the 'Stans. So what are the business models that work best? What are the prospects for fast-growth outpatient models that incorporate diagnostics and primary care? And is all this worth the risks?

    This vast market has shown considerable growth with integrated payor/provider models being consolidated by UnitedHealth and others. Elsewhere in Mexico and Brazil, innovative outpatient models are scaling up and, in some cases, are becoming pan-LatAm players. But often the sector has to fight hard against the entrenched union and professional interest which have led to overactivity and high medical inflation.

    Thursday, November 19, 11.00-12.00 hours UK time

    Sweden and Finland have some of the most advanced models for private/public cooperation, particularly in the care arena. Meanwhile, the care sector appears to be opening up in Denmark and even in oil-rich Norway. But what are prospects like for major players? Following the failure of the long-awaited SOTE reform in Finland, will we see operators there and in Sweden seek to export their care models and enter new markets? The region also leads Europe in is deployment and use of data, digital health, and value health, although telehealth in Sweden now looks under threat.
