In September of this year, Brussels will host the 9th Annual World Cancer Series: Europe, organized by Economist Impact. This two-day conference will feature a lineup of over 90 speakers and will cater to an audience that includes policymakers, healthcare providers, industry frontrunners, scholars, patient associations, and investors.
The agenda for 2023 will expand upon the themes of innovation, equity, and excellence that were central to the previous year’s discussions. These themes are integral to Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan. With the plan’s execution underway, it is an opportune moment to evaluate how the current state of cancer care in the region aligns with its set objectives. The summit’s purpose is to identify accomplishments and pinpoint areas that require further attention. This, in turn, will bolster the drive towards achieving the goals of the plan.
