HIMSS 2022 offers a unique opportunity to bring together the world's most critical and influential Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs).

With a group of 110,000 people, 480 supplier teams, 470 non-profit partners, and 650 service entities, the HIMSS has carried out its tasks year after year to achieve its mission with utmost excellence.

In 2022 and 2021, the HIMSS event had to happen virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it was able to host thousands of KOLs and experts, finalizing in a grand success despite the global crisis and challenges imposed by the pandemic.

Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) and worldwide healthcare experts will gather in Helsinki for the 2022 HIMSS European and Health Conference & Exhibition. Lectures, live sessions, trade shows, and various workshops will be available at the main hall for all attendees.

The event is scheduled from June 14 to 16, 2022, in the capital of Finland, Helsinki. This will be a unique experience to interact with world-renowned experts in nextgen technologies in healthcare, automation systems, and technology applied to public health.

This HIMSS 2022 congress will bring together a large number of professionals, key opinion leaders, and specialists within the life sciences, among whom we have: senior executives, suppliers, information technology professionals, Finnish government officials, innovative entrepreneurs, and consultants, among many other KOLs that you will probably recognize from the reviews we have prepared in this article.

Despite its low temperatures, this city is well known for being friendly and featuring its splendid modern architecture and overflowing with art on every corner.

Helsinki is easy to navigate, with most landmarks being very close together within walking distance. The city has a vast network of transportation options, from trams to buses, including bike passes. Renting bicycles is also available across the city.

You can walk through the market, buy local food, rest in a cafe, and continue your journey with ease. The Finns are also well-known coffee drinkers worldwide; you might get a chance to visit Mood Coffee Roastery in Ullanlinna, Kahvila Siili, in the traditional sector of Käpylä; or maybe Ursula Cafe in the Kaivopuisto. These locations are great choices if you want to explore the culinary offerings of Helsinki.

One of the most relevant aspects of Finland's significant development, even above the United Kingdom or China, is its great dedication, with a long history, to research related to the incorporation of detailed data in the healthcare sector. An aspect that has powerfully caught the attention of the key opinion leader (KOL).

Since 2002, Finland has invested heavily in its efforts to digitalize healthcare records and incorporate technology into the public health system. Finland studies on cancer patients have been recorded and stored since the 1950s, and accurate records of all newborns have been kept since the late 1960s.

With the tremendous technological advance incorporating population data into the public health system and attracting many experts, Finland achieved top quality standards in medical practices and life expectations. This is one of the most critical advantages of meeting all the specialists precisely in Helsinki for the European Health Conference & Exhibition in 2022.
