Global launch: Delivering prevention in an ageing worldILC- UK
It’s never too late to prevent ill health. And the health and economic costs of failing to invest in preventative interventions across the life course are simply too high to ignore.
At this event, we launched two new reports on what works in delivering a preventative approach to health in an ageing world; how we can improve take-up and adherence to preventative interventions; what we have learned from COVID-19; and how policymakers across the world need to act to ensure prevention becomes a priority as countries build back from the damage inflicted by the pandemic.
We were joined by a panel of experts from across the world to discuss the findings and what needs to happen next so we can move from consensus to action on prevention.
An annual two-day transformational platform for innovative ideas, corporate advocacy and trends that shape and drive change in the world of health and social development. The conference offers incredible breath of content, with world-class speakers and conversational leads from diverse fields, with one objective in mind - expanding the solution space.

You are renowned as an international advocate for
healthcare improvement, most notably due to your
former roles as British Government Minister and reformer
of the UK’s National Health Service. How does your role
with WISH fit into this work?
Innovation is the key to change. That is the belief
around which I have based my entire career, and it is
also the central idea of WISH.
The fact is, radical innovation is necessary to meet the
global health challenges that are entrenching themselves
even now. Issues like mental health and obesity – the
immensely complicated issues that every country struggles
with in different ways, so the only realistic way to address
them is for different governments, businesses, non-
governmental organizations, innovators and other groups
to come together and actually commit to changing things
in new ways.
In December, Qatar Foundation (QF) will launch the
first WISH at the Qatar National Convention Centre,
building on the Global Health Policy Summit held in
London in August last year. Her Highness Sheikha Moza
bint Nasser, the Chairperson of QF, has been the real
driving force behind WISH. Her passion for health and
innovation has led to a project on the scale of what we
currently see – a summit with a genuine aspiration to
become the Davos of healthcare. We will host more than
500 senior health policy-makers and reformers, including
heads of state, government ministers, academics, and
representatives of non-government organizations.
I became involved after a discussion with Her Highness
about how to deliver innovative solutions to global health
issues. We shared a concern that although excellent
research was being done, it took too long for innovation to
actually take place in ways that benefited normal people.
This was very much in line with the aspirations of the
organization I founded, The Institute for Global Health
Innovation, at Imperial College London.
It helps that Qatar’s leaders have put such an emphasis
on good healthcare. The National Cancer Strategy and
National Primary Health Care Strategy, both of which I
have had the privilege of working on, are two examples of
their leadership and commitment.
Your career as a surgeon and researcher has led to
important new techniques and technologies in the
fields of minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery and
robot-assisted surgery. How do you see these fields
developing in the near future?
I have been interested in innovation since I was at
medical school in Dublin. At first, in the 1990s, I

worked on the development of keyhole surgery, and
then in the early 2000s I began exploring the
possibilities of robotic surgery.
I always believed that healthcare had the potential to
become smaller, less cumbersome, and more
accessible.
For example, we are currently working on a smart
knife that can sense when it comes into contact with
cancerous tissue. It will allow surgeons to make sure
that they remove entire tumors when they operate,
rather than run the risk of leaving behind cancerous
cells which then regrow. It is an excellent example of
the potential of innovation because it will save lives,
save money, and is easily possible to roll out to other
operating theatres in different hospitals and countries.
Returning to the topic of your involvement with
WISH and healthcare reform, what changes do you
see ahead for patient care in the next decade?
Given the current economic climate, the drivers
of change in the next 10 years will center on what
we need to do to improve quality of care, what we need
to do to improve access to care, and how we can make
care more cost-effective.
These are the three very important principles that are
dictating change.
We need to find innovative solutions that are low
cost and high impact.
In the 20th century, we were accustomed to
healthcare systems designed to cope with the big
burden of infectious disease – big hospitals which
separated patients into different wings.
Now, in the 21st century, we need to look at models
that are better designed to cope with the burden of
chronic, or non-communicable diseases, using ideas
such as ‘hospital at home’ services.
Considering how much you have accomplished in
your career, can you give an insight into what sparks
your thought processes?
I always wake up in the morning excited about
the opportunities that may arise from science and
research.
I never lose hope that there could be a discovery or
innovation that will deal with our four major
problems – health, energy, climate, and security.
It is very difficult to guess what lies ahead, but the
only lesson I have learned is to make sure to keep your
eyes open, because there is always something around
the corner.
