Salon International des Inventions de Genève

When Technology

Heals

More Precise, More Human Medicine

On Thursday, March 12, the Inventions Geneva will spotlight health technologies in the Swiss Pavilion. Artificial intelligence, innovative medical devices, and digital diagnostic support tools: HealthTech is profoundly transforming prevention, treatment, and the organization of care.

In the face of an ageing population and growing pressure on healthcare systems, these innovations address a major challenge: improving quality of care while controlling costs. Automated medical image analysis, remote patient monitoring, and hospital process optimization are making medicine faster, more personalized, and increasingly preventive.

A Strategic Ecosystem

Switzerland ranks among the most dynamic countries in medical technologies and life sciences. Specialized startups, university hospitals, and research institutes work closely together to turn scientific discoveries into concrete solutions.

At the Exhibition, these innovations take shape through Swiss startups attending the dedicated day on Thursday 12 March at the Pavilion, as well as among the hundreds of inventions on display. HealthTech innovations will be easy to spot thanks to the pictogram displayed on the booth banners.

Two Conferences at the Swiss Pavilion

Two sessions will highlight the connections between innovation, design, and industrial performance:

  • Not Designed for MedTech… but perfectly suited to it, hosted by André Klopfenstein (Creaholic), Thursday, March 12, 11:30–12:00 (in French).
  • What Is Design Doing in All This? presented by the Swiss Center for Design and Health, Thursday, March 12, 14:30–15:00.

Two key moments to see how design and engineering give HealthTech that extra layer of intelligence that makes all the difference.
