People- and patient-centric innovation for maximum impact
Giving back time
Healthcare is not working as it needs to. Health systems all over the world are under tremendous pressure. We want to give care providers more time to focus on what matters most – the patient – while making it easier for more people to take care of their own health and well-being at home.
Solving real day-to-day challenges
Innovation in Philips happens as close to our customers and consumers as possible, so we can work backwards from what they really need and solve their day-to-day challenges. We focus on innovations in monitoring, interventional, imaging, enterprise informatics and personal health.
