The Next Health 2.0 Conference

Social networks are redefining relationships within communities in unanticipated and previously unimagined ways. Web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis, podcasts, user-generated video and specialized search - are generating a fundamental shift away from the traditional flow of information in healthcare as defined by payers, physicians, hospital systems and pharma companies. It is absolutely clear that we are at the start of a significant shift in demand from both consumers and providers for better information and easier ways to share experiences.

Stakeholders in health care must immediately begin to confront the decision of how to interact with these new technologies and networks, and potentially adopt and integrate them into their strategies for growth. We’re expecting an even larger crowd than last September, so Health 2.0 San Francisco 2008 promises to be the place to be!
