In 2018 there were 39 mHealth events held around the world (in Australia, Dubai, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, UK and the USA). It’s interesting to note that this number is once again down 40% on the number in 2017 which itself was down 40% on 2016 (click here to view the events that were held in 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010).
The mHealth events that are happening are also now on the whole a lot smaller eg. the mHealth Summit drew in nearly 4,000 delegates just a few years ago is now (renamed as the Connected Health Conference after merging with the Partners Connected Health Conference – the ‘rival’ conference that operated in this space) draws in just a few hundred delegates.
With 2019 fast approaching so it’s time to start compiling a definitive collection of the mHealth meetings planned for 2019. If you know of any that I’ve missed please share a link in the comments below and I’ll update this listing to include them:
