New Connections. New Possibilities.

Beyond presenting our project, VDS gave us the opportunity to connect digital health with fresh ideas, businesses and new opportunities for collaboration.

On October 21–22, we participated in VDS 2026 – Valencia Digital Summit, one of the leading international gatherings for startups, companies, investors and professionals from the tech ecosystem.

An opportunity to share what we’re building at HEWEGO, discover new perspectives and continue exploring how technology can help transform healthcare.

During the event, our CEO and Co-founder, Gonzalo Cámara, took the Horizon Stage to share our vision: more human healthcare, where patients are better informed and healthcare professionals can extend their guidance beyond the consultation room.

At HEWEGO, we transform validated medical information into personalized digital health programs that support patients before, during and after each stage of their care journey.

Because it’s not about providing more information. It’s about delivering the right information at the moment it’s needed most.

A special thank you to EDIH MADRID REGION 2.0 and the Fundación para el Conocimiento madri+d for inviting us and giving us the opportunity to share our vision within an international innovation ecosystem.

We leave with one idea that reinforces our direction:

Technology matters. What we achieve with it matters even more.

We’ll keep bringing knowledge, technology and people together to build healthcare that is more human, more helpful and more efficient.

Health also transforms when it intertwines with other worlds.  

This week, HEWEGO is taking part in Barcelona New Economy Week – BNEW 2026, an event that brings together professionals and companies from fields such as healthcare, artificial intelligence, science, talent, energy and technology to explore how they are shaping the new economy.

And it is precisely this combination of disciplines that we find particularly interesting.

The transformation of healthcare no longer depends solely on what happens within hospitals, pharmaceutical companies or HealthTech businesses. Artificial intelligence, new ways of working, data, and the way we develop talent are also changing how we understand prevention, care, and the relationship people have with their own health.

BNEW reflects this reality particularly well: different sectors sharing the same space and tackling challenges that are increasingly interconnected. This year’s programme covers topics ranging from the impact of AI on organisations to longevity, healthy ageing, preventive medicine, and new ways of using technology and data to improve health.

At HEWEGO, we are especially interested in being part of these spaces because they allow us to look at healthcare from outside our own sector, discover different ways of solving problems, and share our perspective on how technology can help people better understand their health and play a more active role in their own care.

Because innovation is not simply about introducing more technology. It is about making sure that technology ultimately creates meaningful change in people’s lives.

Over the next few days, we’ll continue to be in Barcelona, listening, sharing ideas and connecting with projects and professionals who, from very different fields, are working to transform the way we live, work and take care of our health.

From Hospital Challenges to Practical Solutions.

Last week, we took part in a new Strategic Innovation Gateway (SIG) held at Hospital Virgen del Puerto in Plasencia, alongside MAD e-Health and Digital4Health Worldwide.

The most valuable aspect of these sessions is not the presentations. It is the opportunity to hear firsthand about the real challenges hospitals face and to explore how innovation can help address them.

At HEWEGO, we believe that the best solutions are never created in isolation. They emerge through collaboration between healthcare professionals, hospital managers and innovative companies working towards a common goal: improving the experience of both patients and healthcare professionals.

We had the opportunity to meet with teams from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Nursing, Clinical Care, Geriatrics, Endocrinology, Primary Care and Hospital Management to discuss strategic challenges they are looking to address and explore how HEWEGO can contribute with practical, patient-centred solutions.

Initiatives such as the Strategic Innovation Gateway demonstrate that healthcare transformation moves much faster when innovation stops offering generic answers and starts responding to real-world needs.

We will continue learning, collaborating and helping build a healthcare system that is more human, more practical and more closely connected to the realities of everyday care.

Companies Already Know the Problems. The Challenge Is Changing the Outcomes.  

The Wellbeing Summit 2026, organized by INTRAMA, once again brought together some of the companies and professionals leading the conversation around workplace health and wellbeing. HEWEGO had the opportunity to attend alongside our colleagues from Athlon and share reflections on one of the key challenges organizations are currently facing.

Today, companies understand better than ever the impact that stress, sedentary lifestyles, emotional wellbeing, sleep quality, and musculoskeletal conditions have on both individuals and organizations. They also have more resources, tools, and programs than ever to address these challenges. However, the key question is no longer what to do, but how to ensure that these initiatives generate meaningful and lasting change.

One of the ideas that repeatedly emerged throughout the event was the gap that still exists between knowing and doing. Most people are aware of the basic recommendations for taking care of their health, yet turning that knowledge into long-term habits remains one of the biggest challenges.

Experience shows that information campaigns alone have limited impact. Real transformation happens when people have access to tools that help them better understand their situation, actively participate in their own wellbeing, and progress through small, achievable changes adapted to their reality. Health does not improve simply because we receive information; it improves when we are able to integrate that information into our daily lives.

Another clear trend highlighted during the Wellbeing Summit was the need to move beyond one-size-fits-all approaches and toward more personalized models. Every individual goes through different life stages and faces different challenges. Someone experiencing menopause does not have the same needs as someone trying to regain physical activity, manage hypertension, or improve emotional wellbeing.

At HEWEGO, we believe this is where one of the greatest opportunities for the future of health lies: helping people better understand what they are experiencing, develop the skills needed to take care of their health, and sustain meaningful behaviors over time.

Because the future of wellbeing will not depend on doing more activities. It will depend on making the right actions happen at the right time for each person.

Barcelona is no longer talking about the future of healthcare. It is trying to build it.

Over the last two days, Gonzalo Cámara, CEO of HEWEGO, has been participating in the Health Revolution Congress held at the Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau in Barcelona.

A symbolic place where the hospital of the past coexists with the conversations trying to define what healthcare will look like in the years ahead.

And if there is one thing the HRC is making clear, it is this:

– Digital health is no longer only about technology.
– It is about connecting innovation, healthcare systems and people in a way that truly works.

With nearly 2,000 international attendees, startups, hospitals, laboratories, investors and institutions, the Health Revolution Congress has become one of Europe’s leading spaces where innovation, collaboration and business in digital health come together.

But probably the most interesting part does not only happen on stage.

It happens in the meetings.
In the conversations between hospitals and companies.
In the debates where the sector is starting to talk less about the “future” and more about real implementation.

Because the big question is no longer what technology is coming next.

The real question is: How do we integrate that technology into real healthcare systems without losing the human component?

During the congress, there has been extensive discussion around artificial intelligence, automation, personalized medicine and predictive models.

But one of the most interesting reflections kept appearing between the lines:

– Patients still do not fully trust a diagnosis generated solely by AI without professional supervision.
– But at the same time, they increasingly trust healthcare professionals who use AI tools more than those who do not.

And that idea probably summarizes perfectly the moment digital health is currently experiencing.

AI is not being understood as a technology designed to replace healthcare professionals.

It is being understood as a tool to complement, strengthen and expand their capabilities.

And that completely changes the conversation.

During the HRC, Gonzalo Cámara held meetings with different laboratories and strategic players within the healthcare ecosystem, sharing a vision closely aligned with where the sector seems to be heading:

More participatory models, patient experience, continuity of care, adherence, personalization and tools capable of supporting people beyond the clinical moment.

In this context, HEWEGO was also selected as a finalist in the Health Revolution Awards within the Excellence in Pharma Innovation category.

Beyond the recognition itself, these kinds of spaces help validate something important:

The healthcare sector is beginning to focus on solutions capable of combining:

• TECHNOLOGY
• BEHAVIOUR
• EXPERIENCE
• AND HEALTH COMMUNICATION

And that is probably where an important part of the next healthcare transformation begins.

The next healthcare revolution will probably be far more human than it seems.

Healthcare is no longer looking only for technology. It is looking for solutions that fit into real life.

For years, much of healthcare innovation has focused on developing increasingly advanced technology.

But something is changing.

At the XIV National SEDISA Conference, held in Toledo, one idea kept appearing repeatedly throughout many conversations:

• The challenge is no longer just about innovating
• The real challenge is making innovation work within the real healthcare system.

And that completely changes the conversation.

Under the theme “Healthcare Management in the New Era: Strategy, Innovation and Technology”, nearly 2,000 professionals from across the healthcare ecosystem shared their vision on the future of management, artificial intelligence, data governance and organizational transformation.

But beyond technology, many conversations revolved around something much more complex:

• How to integrate real solutions into real healthcare structures.

Because healthcare innovation fails when it forces the system to adapt to it.
It succeeds when innovation understands how the system actually works.

One of the most valuable experiences for HEWEGO was participating in innovaRED Salud, a meeting designed to connect healthcare executives with innovative companies.

Beyond presenting a solution, it was an opportunity to listen to real needs, understand internal hospital processes and validate whether what we are building truly fits within the healthcare system.

And something especially relevant happened:

• With 100% of the hospitals we spoke with, we continued advancing afterwards in potential implementation and collaboration processes.

That is probably one of the most important validations a digital health company can receive.

Because when a solution connects with real problems, the conversation changes very quickly.

In this context, HEWEGO also participated in the roundtable held on April 15 together with Raúl López and Rodolfo Antuña, represented by Gonzalo Cámara.

After the session, Isabel Chacón summarized some of the key ideas that will shape the future relationship between healthcare systems and innovative companies:

• Understanding the real needs of healthcare organizations
• Having a clear roadmap
• Thinking about scalability
• Understanding hospital processes
• Designing a real access strategy
• Implementing innovation operationally
• And recognizing that data governance will become strategic

Ultimately, all these ideas pointed in the same direction:

Healthcare innovation needs less rhetoric and more real integration capability.
