DTx New Nordics Conference

Session II
Beyond the Hype: Personalised Medicine with MedTech & AI – Legal and Practical Challenges

This session discusses the practical and legal issues related to the use of cutting-edge medtech solutions and AI applications that enable patient-specific interventions. But turning these breakthroughs into real-world patient benefit requires more than just technical excellence – it demands navigating a complex landscape of legal, regulatory, and practical hurdles. We will dive into the realities of implementing AI-driven medtech in personalised care by discussing practical challenges related to the legal frameworks (including EU MDR/IVDR, EU AI Act, GDPR) and the operational challenges of integrating new technologies into healthcare systems.

Life Science Diplomacy Alliance Summit

Forum III: Practical Interoperability

Lise-Lotte Lääne will be chairing the Implementation Corridor section.

The Tallinn Summit will bring together investors, healthcare providers, policymakers, diplomats, corporate innovation leaders, startups, scaleups, CROs, CVCs, and ecosystem builders from across North America, Europe, and Australasia. Participants will explore how cross-border investment and strategic collaboration can be operationalized in a more volatile policy and funding environment. Unlike a traditional conference, the summit is designed to move from discussion to action—stress-testing real collaboration opportunities, identifying what should advance toward United Nations’ General Assembly in September, and building practical corridors between capital, industry, policy, and implementation. The summit offers an opportunity to showcase Estonia’s strength as a gateway for life science innovation, participate in dialogue alongside international capital and partners, and engage in proactively supporting conversations with allied policymakers.

For Estonian participants: participation is free of charge.

For international delegates: participation packages are available and include accommodation, local transportation and catering.
