IPS Summit in Brussels

Save the Date for the IPS Summit in Brussels!

The Joint Initiative Council is continuing its efforts to establish the IPS as a “global public good” under joint stewardship by the respective stakeholders. We launched our discussion paper in the summer of 2024. Over the past 18 months we have engaged in a number of listening and discussion sessions at various venues, culminating in an excellent joint session between the JIC and the GDHP in Quebec City in November 2026

We now want to bring this discussion to the wider stakeholder community, leading up to having an active IPS strategic stewardship in place by 2027. During the IHE Europe Connectathon Week in Brussels we invite participants from across the globe to join the discussion! And of course you are encouraged to attend other sessions during the week.
