Easy access

Smart Health in Dresden means using modern technologies to make access to healthcare services easier and more efficient. Whether it’s telemedicine, online booking or online consultations – this makes healthcare more accessible to all citizens.

Technologies of the Future

Health is priceless – and innovative technologies are now helping to improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment in the medical field. This enables diseases to be detected at an early stage, medicines to be administered in precise doses, and new forms of treatment to be developed.

Research for the future

High-tech applications from Dresden are being used worldwide and are continuously being further developed here at our site. New technologies such as robot-assisted surgery and intelligent sensor systems increase the precision and safety of procedures, whilst also reducing the workload on the surgical team.

Cross-regional
cooperation

Projects such as the East Saxony Stroke Network demonstrate how specialised medical care can be improved, even in rural areas. Specialists from the Dresden and other major hospitals support the surrounding area through the exchange of data.

Strong partnerships for
innovations

Companies in the ‘ Dresden ’ benefit from close collaboration with leading research institutions such as Fraunhofer IPMS and the National Centre for Tumour Diseases (NCT/UCC).

Data-driven healthcare solutions

Innovative projects such as OncoBroker, which enables the secure exchange of data in cancer aftercare, or the development of MEMS technologies for diagnostics and treatment, are creating new business opportunities.

Dresden among the best

With internationally recognised companies such as GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals Dresden and ROTOP Pharmaka Dresden, the city has developed into a global player in the biotech sector and a hub for innovation.

Shaping the future

Current initiatives such as the Telemedicine Stroke Network are designed to further simplify communication between doctors and patients, thereby shaping the future of medicine.
