As Head of Healthcare at Portuguese Business Council - UAE, I had the privilege of leading Portuguese business delegations to two pivotal healthcare events: the #PrecisionMedicine Conference in Dubai and the Abu Dhabi Global Health Week (ADGHW).
Both events showcased the incredible potential of collaboration between Portuguese and Emirati institutions. #ADGHW, in particular, was a whirlwind of groundbreaking discussions and transformative healthcare breakthroughs. It was inspiring to connect with thought leaders, fellow healthcare pioneers, local mentors (and friends) who are shaping the future of healthcare, from Abu Dhabi to the world.
Enlighting talks explored cutting-edge advancements in genomics, preventive health, AI & precision medicine, longevity, and much more. These areas represent the future of healthcare, and the Portuguese and Emirati delegations participated actively in discussions on how we can leverage them for the benefit of all.
The synergy between Portuguese and Emirati institutions was truly remarkable. These 2 weeks were filled with productive meetings, clinical discussions, investment decisions, and the forging of partnerships and cooperation agreements (PPPs, FDIs, and research initiatives). This collaboration holds immense promise for the success of future bilateral projects, contributing significantly to both nations' healthcare landscapes.
Abu Dhabi's unwavering commitment to creating a futuristic, sustainable healthcare hub that aims to "democratize longevity" is truly inspiring. Witnessing their dedication to preventative and personalized care firsthand fills me with optimism for the future of global healthcare.
The Portuguese-Emirati collaboration in healthcare is a beacon of innovation and progress. Together, we are paving the way for a more preventative, precise, and extended healthspan for all.
