EVENT DETAILS

HealthTech Women is finally coming to New York City! Come join us for our launch event focused around the topic of Augmented and Virtual Reality in Healthcare!
 
Space is limited so make sure to confirm your seat today. 
Augmented Reality is certainly not new, and especially within the Healthcare sector! Over the recent years, extensive product development and real business models have emerged to make this technology become adopted by both consumers and businesses.
 
So what is augmented reality? This is where computer generated images are superimposed onto a real world object with the aim of enhancing its qualities. In Healthcare, AR can fall under: Surgery, Medical Data Visualization, Education and Training, and Rehabilitation and Therapy.

<A STYLE="text-decoration: none;" HREF="http://www.healthtechwomen.com/" REL="nofollow">HealthTech Women</A> (along with Augmented Reality -NY (ARNY), have brought together two key female executives in this area, one from true industry and another from Pharma to discuss what they are seeing, some exciting trends and how pharma is now even exploring this area as a new initiative. 
Come see for yourself, by testing some really cool technology! Space is VERY limited so make sure you register today.
