The artificial intelligence accelerator focused on health and medical technologies, and on well-being, health and social services organisations. For many, health and well-being technologies were at the core of the artificial intelligence solutions.

Health tech aims to optimise personal well-being and offers preventive services that do not fall under controlled health and medical care professions. Patient information systems used in healthcare organizations form an exception. The goal of the health tech industry is to innovate, produce and supply business and consumer customers with products and services that prevent diseases and improve the quality of life.

Health tech includes, for example, software applications, analyses of health-related data and a wealth of devices for monitoring of health and wellbeing. Massive amounts of data can be collected from the devices and software used by consumers. This data can then be analysed further for diagnostic purposes and form a basis for new innovations.

Med tech refers to medical device technologies and software used for diagnostics, treatments and therapeutics, as well as prescription medications. Medical technologies are used in hospitals and patient care.
