Augmentation of Humans

Digital Twins powered by wearable technologies as the real-time information channel will enhance the human’s potential and augment real-time parameter monitoring and information forecasting. The so-called Metaverse and the direct interaction between humans and the related Digital Twin will be a major driver to act and live more efficiently, to drive prevention in healthcare, and by that reduce the fast-growing healthcare expenses globally. Augmentation means also enabling disabled humans with technology extensions to overcome their burdens - from hearables to intelligent/robotic-based prothesis.

Deep Tech and Innovations

Technology is the only way to overcome the current and future problems of our society. To stay at the forefront of technological developments, the WT WearableTechnologies Events always have a strong focus on the latest developments in the field of innovative Deep Tech, including sensors, radio frequencies, batteries, charging technologies, and design/manufacturing solutions. Complementing Deep Tech, other innovations are needed. At our conference, those innovations will be brought in by world-leading techpreneurs competing in the famous Innovation World Cup Series. A pitch session in the evening of the first conference day will showcase the latest global innovations in the field of wearables for healthcare, wellness, sport, and workforce safety as well as workforce optimization.

Enabling the Future of Healthcare

The doctor will call you when you need it without potentially even knowing it – this is a vision the healthcare industry and the WT | Wearable Technologies AG have for now exactly 20 years. While with the advancements in technology, we are making big leaps in this direction, we are not quite there yet. Industry and stakeholders must push technological developments faster and drive the healthcare market towards digitalization. Especially due to the tremendous explosion of healthcare expenses, and the lag of nurses and doctors the demand for technology-enabled healthcare is now more needed than ever. Wearables are a major enabler in this important journey for all humans. Especially European countries such as Germany are years if not even decades behind other countries in the field of utilizing Wearables, healthcare data management, and the willingness of patients as well as doctors to share the data. Let us work together in this session to drive digitalization in one of our most important markets!

The Must Attend Event for the WT | Wearable Technologies Ecosystem

Since 2006 our worldwide WT | Wearable Technologies Conference Series is the #1 B2B event for decision-makers, techpreneurs and researchers to gain insights on innovations and to meet and connect with thought leaders of the WT value chain. Now it is time for the 41^st edition of the WT | Wearable Technologies Conference in San Francisco on July 26^th and 27^th. Two days filled with an unique conference program, this year’s event will focus on the following topics:

- Wearables as Enablers of the 5 Senses of the Metaverse
- Consumerization of Healthcare
- Wearables for Safety at Work
- Wearables on the Forefront of the Digitalization of the Healthcare Industry
- Wearables for Sports - The NFLPA Perspective
- Wearables for the Ageing Population
- and finally don’t miss our famous WT - Enabling Tech Session

If you want to learn about the latest innovations with wearables, do not miss this opportunity and stop by! This year's partners include e.g. Henkel, Stanford University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, NFLPA, and innovative new tech of BeFC, Accumold, Xsensio, Zimmer&Peacock, and many more.

The Next Level of Healthcare

The doctor will call you when you need it without potentially even knowing it – this is a vision the healthcare industry and the WT | Wearable Technologies AG have for now exactly 20 years.
‍
One of this year’s focus topics is the next level of healthcare solutions using IoT and WT solutions to become more user-centric and more cost-efficient. Healthcare data and the dedicated sensors worn on the body or installed in the hospital or home environment will be the key enabler of a future-oriented healthcare system worldwide. The movement has already started many years ago, but due to solved interoperability topics, ongoing Moore's law miniaturization of chipsets, and the optimization of the power consumption of those tiny sensors – the breakthrough in this digitalized healthcare market is in front of our teeth. Stayed tuned for how patches, printed sensors, and batteries as well as completely new sensor solutions will enable new business models and new patient-centric care solutions.
