Expertise, experience and vision for the future: the ALTENPFLEGE expert advisory board

The ALTENPFLEGE Expert Advisory Board brings together leading figures from the care sector. With their specialist knowledge, they support the strategic development of the trade fair and contribute their insights into what is driving the care industry today and tomorrow. Together, they ensure that ALTENPFLEGE addresses relevant topics, identifies trends early on and provides impetus for strong, sustainable care.

For me, ALTENPFLEGE is the ultimate industry gathering for learning about innovations, new developments, social policy and products. ALTENPFLEGE is also a meeting place for people who are committed to and involved in the industry, who want to exchange ideas, look forward to seeing each other again and are curious and eager to learn.

As the leading trade fair, ALTENPFLEGE is the most important platform in our industry. As a representative of Vincentz Network, I would like to play a role in the expert advisory board with regard to relevance and innovative strength, particularly for long-term care, and also successfully develop the interaction between the trade fair and the congress.
