360º Next Generation Healthcare Festival – this is the motto, under which the technology and medicine festival XPOMET from 10 to 12 October 2019 in Berlin is going to be held. The event is a new global healthcare platform and networks all actors from Science to industry, all the way to politics in an interdisciplinary manner. The challenges of the healthcare sector will be discussed and chances that technological developments like digitization, robotics or artificial intelligence offer, will be presented. The Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) drives cooperative innovations with its MIRO Innovation Lab, a competence centre for medical robotics, and presents the Institute and its research work at the XPOMET Medicinale in Berlin.
