The hospital landscape continues to undergo massive transformation: immense cost pressure and structural adjustments on the one hand, and the interplay of specializations, new care models, and technologies on the other, are reshaping how hospitals operate and patients receive care.

At ZKNFT, the solution platform for the future of healthcare, clinic managers, politicians, and experts discuss on Thursday, February 26, 2026 at the Bolle Festsäle Berlin together: Which care models have proven successful so far? What can we learn from them, and how can ongoing and upcoming reforms be successfully implemented? What do future-proof strategies look like? And how can digitalization and AI be integrated into care today?

In the morning, the active shaping of structural reform will be the focus: Vision for Hospital 2030, as well as the balance between comprehensive coverage and specialization, and initial experiences from reform practice. At noon, we will discuss various key topics together, such as hospitals in alliance defense, new developments in AI, and pioneering developments in outpatient care and telemedicine. The afternoon will then focus on collaboration and mergers, investments and infrastructure, personnel productivity, and performance management. The congress will conclude with the Roadmap 2026 – concrete steps for future-proof hospitals.

Speakers and guests contribute to the ZKNFT community on this day: Exciting insights, intensive exchange, and interactive formats – because tomorrow’s healthcare can only be shaped together!
