The Next Frontier in Cancer Care - Slush event in Helsinki
The Next Frontier in Cancer Care: Powered by AI
🗓 When: November 19, 2025, at 5:00 PM
📍 Where: Riviera, Helsinki
Oncology has entered a new era of innovation — 83 new cancer medicines have launched in the past five years, improving millions of lives and transforming cancer into a chronic condition for many. And the momentum continues: over 700 oncology therapies are currently in late-stage development, signaling a pipeline of future breakthroughs.
Yet as cancer incidence continues to rise, so does the strain on clinical resources. The result? A widening gap between breakthrough therapies and their implementation in real-world care. Cancer is also now among the most expensive diseases to treat, signaling a pressing need for scalable, smarter solutions.
Can the increasing use of data and AI close the gap between discovery and clinical adoption?
We will be discussing also what role data-driven diagnostics patients, families, and other next-gen technologies will play in redefining outcomes.
Join an exclusive panel featuring three high-growth startups - HederaDx, Vaalia Health, and Gosta Labs - alongside experienced pharmaceutical leaders.
Panelists:
