For three days, SantExpo 2026 brought together healthcare stakeholders around a shared ambition: advancing our health system to serve every generation.
“Excellence in Health: A Commitment for Every Generation”
Around this theme, SantExpo 2027 will spotlight the major challenges and opportunities reshaping our health system:
MENTAL HEALTH
Making mental health a shared priority
Access to care, care pathway coordination, prevention, youth services: mental health is a major public health challenge. Professionals, facilities and frontline teams share their practices and the organizations that deliver results.
HUMAN RESOURCES
Attract, retain and care for those who care
People are the greatest strength of the health system. Recruitment, quality of work life, management, training and new professions: this theme explores the levers that make facilities more attractive and give careers renewed meaning.
WOMEN’S HEALTH
Better understanding, better care, better support
Endometriosis, perinatal care, menopause, cardiovascular disease, violence against women: long underestimated, women’s health needs call for tailored responses. A theme to advance research, practices and access to care.
INDEPENDENCE
Supporting older adults and people with disabilities, at home and in facilities
As the population ages, independence is a priority for the entire sector. Nursing home innovations, the shift to home-based care, assistive devices, coordination between health and social care: solutions for healthy aging and full lives with a disability.
AI IN HEALTHCARE
Artificial intelligence serving caregivers and patients
Diagnostic support, streamlined operations, less administrative work: AI opens up huge possibilities. Real-world uses, deployment conditions, ethics and data security are on the agenda for AI that is useful and well governed.
PREVENTION
Act early to care better
Screening, vaccination, health education, addiction prevention: investing in prevention improves everyone’s health and protects the health system. Facilities and regions showcase the initiatives that are changing the game.
ECOLOGICAL TRANSITION
Toward a more sustainable health system
Healthcare has a key role to play in the ecological transition. Energy efficiency, responsible purchasing, waste management, eco-designed care, sustainable buildings: lessons learned and solutions for more environmentally friendly facilities.
These themes embody the real-world challenges of transforming the health system and the strength of the community driving them.
This Theme Expresses Both a Requirement and a Promise
The requirement: a health system that meets the needs and expectations of everyone. The promise: a shared commitment from all stakeholders, including facilities, professionals, manufacturers, researchers, start-ups, associations and regions. Because excellence in health goes far beyond technical performance. It lives in human quality, appropriate care, trust and cooperation. And this collective momentum is what we will bring to life together at SantExpo 2027.
