Collaborations
“We believe the children are above and beyond any politics, any war,” said Efrat Harlev, CEO, Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel. “This is really a situation to use these peaceful times in order to do much collaboration between our two people in all the different fields of pediatrics”
Moopen echoed Harlev’s sentiment. “There is a significant opportunity in all the areas… especially in areas like pediatrics. There are some UAE hospitals specialized in child care, but they are not at the same level as their Israeli counterparts."
Digitization the key
“There is again significant opportunity in areas like digital health - starting from a simple telemedicine consultation to tele ICU." With over 1,500 healthcare-related startups in Israel, “there will definitely be a lot of things which can be tested here (in UAE) as well as tried and adopted here.”
