Health informatics and knowledge management use information technology, data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) to develop insights, support evidence-based decision-making in health, and drive innovation in the health care industry. The recent astonishing advances in AI and technologies have raised serious concerns how Health Care, Health Information, Knowledge Management and our society in general will be affected. Interoperability remains a big concern as well, which has thus far, placed severe limitations on the adoption of technology into clinical practice. At our Health Informatics Knowledge Management Conference 16-17 September 2025, we will explore, review and assess these changes and their effects on clinical decisions, trust, openness and the sustainability of healthcare and society.
