Wearable devices and real-time health monitoring technologies are reshaping healthcare. By enabling continuous streams of health data, they are changing how patients are monitored and how clinical decisions are made, raising important questions around ownership, accountability and risk.
As organisations embrace these innovations, they must navigate an increasingly complex legal and regulatory landscape. Questions around data ownership, cyber security, liability and governance are becoming more significant as monitoring technologies play a greater role in healthcare delivery and clinical decision-making.
Drawing on perspectives from the technology, healthcare and life sciences sectors, this discussion will explore key issues including:
- Data ownership and governance within connected health ecosystems
- Cross-border data protection and information sharing
- Cyber security risks and their implications for patient safety
- Responsibility and liability when monitoring technologies are defective or cause harm
- The role of governance in supporting innovation and adoption
What to expect
Healthcare is increasingly moving from reactive treatment to continuous monitoring, creating new opportunities for technology to support patients, clinicians and healthcare providers.
This shift raises significant legal, regulatory and commercial considerations. As monitoring technologies become more sophisticated and more closely integrated with healthcare delivery, organisations must navigate evolving expectations around privacy, security, accountability and risk.
Through practical discussion and audience Q&A, our panel will explore whether regulation acts as a barrier to innovation or an enabler of trust, adoption and growth. Attendees will gain insight into how organisations can develop and deploy real-time health monitoring technologies while navigating the legal, regulatory and governance challenges that accompany them.

- Practical insight into the legal and regulatory issues affecting real-time health monitoring technologies
- A better understanding of data ownership, cyber security and liability considerations
