Local Rural Practices of the future. MWC

At #MWC2025, we presented "Local Rural Practices of the Future", a visionary project designed to enhance healthcare access in rural areas through telemedicine, AI, telemonitoring, and point-of-care (PoC) analysis. By integrating these digital health solutions, we aim to improve patient care, reduce unnecessary travel, and support healthcare professionals in remote settings.
