This is the last of four consecutive roundtable sessions, running from 10:00 to 18:00 in Templars Hall, that bring together European and national research projects, public authorities, healthcare providers, and innovators to explore how digital health, data infrastructures, and advanced analytics are reshaping cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship.
This session addresses the existing gap between digital innovation and real-world uptake in cancer prevention, treatment and care, highlighting that technology alone cannot deliver impact without digital health literacy, continuous training, and active engagement of patients, carers and professionals. Featuring insights from multiple European cancer initiatives, the roundtable will reflect on lessons from earlier projects and showcase how current literacy-first, co-creation and Living Lab–based approaches are reshaping implementation pathways. Through short project inputs and an interactive multi-stakeholder dialogue, participants will examine patient and workforce skill needs, cultural change, digital inequalities and policy responsibilities, while identifying practical strategies to embed sustainable literacy and engagement as structural pillars of Europe’s digital cancer transformation.
