January 26,2015

Dubai, UAE – At Arab Health 2015, Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA) is showcasing its commitment to HealthTech by delivering connected healthcare innovations that support the entire health continuum.  Philips is bringing together its clinical breadth and depth of expertise, technology and services, actionable data, consultative new business models and partnerships, as well as its deep consumer understanding to deliver connected healthcare to the Middle East. 

 

Philips is sharing its vision of how the professional healthcare and consumer markets are converging into a single health continuum, enabled by connected health technology. This continuum starts with a focus on healthy living and prevention, which empowers consumers to take control over their own health. Next, the continuum includes definitive diagnostics and minimally invasive treatments, of which the quality and cost are optimized. And finally, the continuum encompasses recovery and home care, which is both more comfortable and cost-effective.

 

"We have an amazing opportunity here in the Middle East to work together with consumers, our clinical partners, research institutions and governments to improve the lives of people in the Middle East," said Roy Jakobs, Chief Executive Officer, Philips Middle East and Turkey. “The healthcare community here is dynamic, forward-thinking and most importantly ambitiously driving the agenda to improve care across the board, together we can build a truly connected and advanced healthcare system in the region.”
