European markets are experiencing significant labour shortages, a trend sharpened by all-time-high employee sickness rates. Employers are now increasingly relying on Occupational Health providers that promise lower employee absence days, better talent recruitment and higher workforce productivity. The growth drivers in these businesses combined low-regulation, predominantly B2B and stable revenue models makes it an attractive space for investors. This session explores how such services are impacting employee health and what the best model to win in the space is. How does integration with primary care, PMI and tech-enablement transform delivery and scale access?

Nuclear medicine has long had its place in the diagnosis and treatment of disease, primarily in cardiology and oncology. Today, the nuclear medicine market is at an inflection point, as the rise of theragnostics and the advent of novel products is expected to nearly quadruple the size of the market in the next 10 years from ~$7bn to $25+bn by 2033. The enormous growth in the field is driven by continued radiopharmaceutical funding where 250+ trials are currently being conducted and by trial funding increasing ~45%+ p.a. between 2019 and 2022.
