The Health Data Space. Challenges and opportunities

MARCH 12, 2026 Members' News

The European Health Data Space will mark a turning point in the way we share, analyze, and use health data in Spain and across Europe.

The Imaging Foundation is organizing the Health Data Space event: Challenges and Opportunities. It will take place on March 24th at the Mapfre Foundation headquarters. We will bring together experts in healthcare, technology, research, business, and governance to discuss:

  • How the new framework will affect the primary and secondary use of data.
  • What opportunities it opens up for clinical innovation and AI development.
  • What the challenges are in terms of security, ethics, data quality, and representativeness.


This event by the Imaging Foundation is a unique opportunity to understand its real implications, anticipate changes, and seize its opportunities. It is a key moment for interoperability, artificial intelligence, and personalized medicine.

This meeting is not only informative. It is strategic. Participating means positioning yourself at the heart of the debate about the future of health data.

Nice charts for the next internal meeting.
