Last 24-26 March, Healthcare Business International (HBI) organized its annual congress in Paris, the largest annual CEO gathering of international healthcare companies, investors, advisors and suppliers from across the for-profit healthcare industry.

This year we were proud partner of Healthcare Business International 2025 and we had the honour to close the congress in with the session  “Is Europe of Health a Myth or a Reality? How to Enhance Collaboration Between Industries and Regulatory States, Including Financial Partnerships for Resilient Healthcare Systems”, expertly moderated by our Honorary President, Dr Paul Garassus.

The panel discussion featured distinguished speakers such as:

  • Mr Oscar Gaspar, UEHP President
  • Mr Dr Guillaume DEDET, Senior Health Economist at OECD – OCDE
  • Mr Francesco Travagli, Director of Investment promotion at Choose Paris Region
  • Mr Vassilis Tsanidis, Innovation Procurement Adviser at EIC – European Innovation Council

Demand, financing, resource scarcity, access to knowledge and innovation is bringing the public, private and government much closer together when it comes to healthcare. Be it investment in infrastructure, outsourced services, financing agreements or management these new models are proving successful and tackling challenges in social care, chronic diseases, technology adoption and workforce struggles. The session explored the components of successful models with input from all three sides of the PPP structure. The panellists reflected on how to improve collaboration between industry and Regulatory States, including financial partnerships for resilient healthcare systems.
