ADGHW was attended by 11 health ministers from countries such as Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, Korea, Russia, Greece, Armenia, Georgia and Nepal, as well as prominent international figures in the field of health and scientific research, including Nobel Peace Prize laureate Leymah Gbowee, and included 69 panel discussions on digital health, prevention, healthy ageing, artificial intelligence and precision medicine.

The programme featured 69 sessions and facilitated the signing of 33 strategic Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs), aimed at advancing data-driven health systems that leverage artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive analytics to detect, prevent, and manage diseases; extending healthy lifespans through innovations in precision medicine, early intervention, and personalised care; building more resilient and equitable healthcare ecosystems that are sustainable, future-ready, and inclusive; and accelerating investment in life sciences to scale innovation where it is most needed.

These cross-sector, cross-border collaborations, with partners including M42, PureHealth, Illumina, New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD), Khalifa University, Institute for Healthier Living Abu Dhabi (IHLAD), GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO), Masdar City, Southwest Texas Regional Advisory Council (STRAC), Gilead Sciences and others, demonstrate Abu Dhabi's growing role as a trusted global health convener and a driving force behind scalable, future-focused solutions.

ADGHW also served as a launchpad for innovation. The dedicated Startup Zone and Smart Health Hackathon offered health tech startups an opportunity to directly engage with investors, mentors, and platforms to scale. The ADGHW Innovation Awards recognised pioneering contributions to health and longevity, awarding a combined $200,000 prize to solutions tackling the sector's most pressing challenges.

As new threats emerge and longstanding challenges persist, Abu Dhabi remains committed to championing a future of health that is proactive, data-driven, and built to benefit all, reimagining what is possible for the well-being of every person, everywhere. (ANI/ WAM)
