The question now is how to scale what already works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was the central theme of the Connected Healthcare Executive Roundtable hosted by <strong>GSMA <\/strong>and <strong>Global Healthcare Connector (GHC) <\/strong>in Amsterdam on 15 June 2026, where healthcare leaders, operators, clinicians, technology providers and ecosystem partners gathered to focus on one challenge: moving from isolated innovation projects towards repeatable, system-level deployment models.&nbsp;<br><br>Held alongside the wider healthcare innovation activity taking place across Amsterdam during HLTH Europe, the roundtable created a focused environment for practical discussion, peer exchange and collaboration. The emphasis throughout was clear: healthcare does not need more disconnected pilots. It needs scalable frameworks, proven deployment pathways and stronger collaboration between healthcare systems and the connectivity ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The session brought together perspectives from hospitals, operators and innovation leaders already implementing connected healthcare solutions in live clinical environments. Discussions explored how technologies such as private networks, AI-enabled workflows, XR-supported clinical collaboration, connected ambulances and intelligent asset tracking are beginning to shift from experimentation towards operational reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-scaling-what-works\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">Scaling What Works<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The roundtable was structured around a simple but important premise: proven deployments already exist, but replication remains difficult.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opening discussions from GSMA, and GHC, the <strong>Connected Healthcare and Community Care Accelerator (CHACCA)<\/strong> focused on the growing gap between healthcare innovation and scaled deployment. Participants examined why many successful healthcare technology initiatives remain confined to individual hospitals or regions, despite demonstrating measurable operational and clinical value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than focusing on future concepts alone, the discussion centred on practical implementation lessons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What can already be replicated today?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which deployment models are transferable across healthcare systems?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What must be standardised to accelerate adoption?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which partnerships are required to scale successfully?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This implementation-first approach shaped the entire session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-real-world-deployments-take-centre-stage\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">Real-World Deployments Take Centre Stage<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A key part of the roundtable was the \u201cArt of the Possible\u201d session, which grounded the discussion in operational deployments already taking place across healthcare systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-stockholm-integrated-connected-healthcare-systems\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">Stockholm: Integrated Connected Healthcare Systems<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-gsma-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-32ed0e0d6a28216367eb598d6c1342ec wp-block-paragraph\">Representatives from Stockholm shared how advanced connectivity is&nbsp;<a>being embedded into everyday healthcare operations, demonstrating how digital infrastructure can support more connected, responsive, and efficient care delivery. One example discussed was the use of connected ambulances, where real-time patient data, diagnostics, and video feeds can be securely transmitted to hospital teams before arrival, enabling clinicians to prepare treatment plans earlier and improve response times for critical cases.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The discussion also highlighted the challenges of integrating advanced connectivity solutions into existing hospital IT environments, from interoperability and security requirements to workflow alignment. At the same time, it demonstrated how carefully planned deployment models can strengthen coordination between emergency services, hospital teams, and digital systems, ultimately improving operational efficiency and supporting better patient outcomes.<br><br><strong>Dr. Mikael Edsbagge, Senior Consultant and Department Head of Neuro-medical Care, and Digitalisation Strategist <\/strong>described the roundtable as a highly engaging and insightful experience. He particularly appreciated the opportunity to deepen his understanding of 5G and its potential role within healthcare, including the benefits it can deliver for clinicians, patients, and healthcare systems. The discussions offered valuable perspectives on how 5G can be combined with technologies such as AI, XR, and digital health platforms to support more connected, efficient, and patient-centred models of care. He noted that, from a clinical perspective, exploring how these technologies can work together to enhance healthcare delivery was both valuable and inspiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-goteborg-private-network-enabled-healthcare-innovation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">G\u00f6teborg: Private Network-Enabled Healthcare Innovation<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-gsma-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-47cf16cadfa1f6fa654735cc9fbd2b4a wp-block-paragraph\"><a>G\u00f6teborg\u2019s contribution focused on the role of private networks within hospital environments and the operational benefits emerging from advanced connectivity deployments.&nbsp;<\/a>One example discussed was the use of drone-enabled delivery of defibrillators, where advanced connectivity supports rapid dispatch, tracking, and coordination with emergency responders, helping critical equipment reach patients faster during cardiac emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participants explored how dedicated connectivity environments can provide the reliability, security, and performance required for healthcare applications, while also examining the operational and partnership models needed to make these deployments repeatable across healthcare systems.<br><br><strong>Frederik Engstr\u00f6mer, Head of Innovation- Region Stockholm<\/strong>&nbsp;highlighted concerns around the limited availability and adoption of IoT devices in healthcare, noting that this is an area where greater industry focus and promotion are needed. He also emphasised the opportunity to bring AI and 5G together more effectively, given the growing number of healthcare use cases that combine both technologies. The discussion explored how the industry can better demonstrate, deploy, and scale AI- and 5G-enabled healthcare solutions to deliver greater clinical and operational impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-nuhs-singapore-building-a-system-scale-deployment-model\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">NUHS Singapore: Building a System-Scale Deployment Model<\/mark><\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GSMA also shared insights from its ongoing collaboration with the National University Health System (NUHS) in Singapore, highlighting how connected healthcare initiatives can be scaled across complex healthcare environments and ecosystem partners. Drawing on real-world examples from the partnership, the discussion explored applications such as XR-based clinical training and simulation, digital twins, and immersive technologies that support healthcare education, operational planning, and patient care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The session demonstrated that successful deployment depends not only on technology, but also on strong governance, interoperability, sustainable funding models, and long-term collaboration between healthcare providers, operators, technology partners, and policymakers. Participants discussed how these elements can help transform innovative healthcare solutions from individual projects into scalable, repeatable models that can be adopted across healthcare systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participants explored how immersive technologies, digital twins, mixed reality and advanced connectivity are increasingly being integrated into clinical and educational environments, not as standalone innovations, but as part of wider transformation programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-collaboration-becomes-the-core-discussion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">Collaboration Becomes the Core Discussion<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While technology was central to the discussion, the roundtable repeatedly returned to one conclusion: connected healthcare cannot scale through technology alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The moderated executive discussion focused heavily on collaboration frameworks and implementation pathways.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Healthcare leaders discussed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Replicable deployment architectures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Commercial and procurement models<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interoperability requirements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Funding structures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ecosystem responsibilities across hospitals, operators, vendors and integrators<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The role of reference templates and implementation frameworks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Importantly, participants also explored what slows replication down. Across multiple discussions, common barriers emerged:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fragmented procurement approaches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Limited interoperability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lack of scalable governance models<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Challenges aligning healthcare and telecom operational priorities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Difficulty translating successful pilots into funded operational programmes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The session reinforced the growing need for ecosystem-wide coordination if connected healthcare is to move beyond isolated deployments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-from-conversation-to-action\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">From Conversation to Action<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the defining characteristics of the Amsterdam roundtable was its focus on outcomes rather than theory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The session concluded with agreement around several immediate next steps, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Formation of targeted working groups<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Exploration of new GSMA Foundry collaboration pathways<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Potential feasibility initiatives and follow-up deployments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identification of priority replication opportunities across healthcare systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alignment around future showcase opportunities, including MWC Barcelona<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participants also discussed how initiatives such as CHACCA can help create repeatable deployment frameworks that healthcare systems can adapt more efficiently across different regions and operating environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The conversation reflected a broader industry shift. Healthcare innovation is increasingly moving away from isolated experimentation towards operational scale, measurable outcomes and ecosystem-led implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-looking-ahead-to-m360-asean-nbsp\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gsma-red-color\">Looking Ahead to M360 Asean&nbsp;<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The discussions in Amsterdam arrive at an important moment for the wider healthcare and connectivity ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Momentum will continue at<a href=\"https:\/\/www.m360series.com\/asean\">&nbsp;M360 APAC 2026 Asean<\/a>&nbsp;in September 2026, where connected healthcare is expected to remain a growing focus within broader discussions around digital transformation, AI, infrastructure and advanced connectivity across Asia-Pacific.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Building on the themes explored in Amsterdam, GSMA will also launch a new healthcare-focused opinion piece examining the evolving role of connectivity in enabling scalable healthcare transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The publication will explore:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Why healthcare systems are shifting from pilots to deployment at scale<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The role of mobile networks and advanced connectivity in enabling operational transformation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Key barriers to implementation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Replicable models emerging across global healthcare systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The importance of ecosystem collaboration in accelerating adoption<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, the Amsterdam roundtable and the upcoming M360 discussions reflect a wider transition taking place across the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Connected healthcare is no longer defined by isolated demonstrations of technology potential. Increasingly, the focus is on building the partnerships, frameworks and operational models needed to create scalable healthcare systems that can deliver measurable impact across regions and populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because ultimately, the future of connected healthcare will not be built by one organisation alone. It will be built through collaboration across the entire ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"384\" height=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gsma.com\/get-involved\/gsma-foundry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/servlet.FileDownload.avif\" alt=\"A blue and green circular gradient icon appears to the left of bold black text reading \u201cGLOBAL HEALTH CONNECTOR\u201d on a white background.
