Brussels, Belgium

Looking back on a fantastic week!

The 40th GS1 Healthcare Global Conference took place in Brussels, Belgium from 4–6 November 2025. This special in-person edition marked the culmination of GS1 Healthcare’s 20th-anniversary celebrations and brought together the global healthcare community for three days of learning, discussion, and collaboration.

The conference convened healthcare leaders, regulators, hospitals, suppliers, and solution providers from around the world to explore how GS1 standards are shaping the future of traceability, digital health, and patient safety.

Across the three days, attendees engaged in expert-led plenaries, interactive breakout sessions, and real-world use cases, from pharmaceutical and medical device traceability to EHR integration, online pharmacy, and global regulatory developments. Whether focused on hospital innovation or product safety across global supply chains, participants had the opportunity to connect, learn, and share perspectives.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Brussels and contributed to shaping the future of safer, more efficient, and more connected healthcare.
