During the recent ESICM event, Intensive Care Innovation, Maurizio Cecconi delivered a talk titled “Innovations: what should they mean for Intensive Care.” He explored the role of technological and organizational innovation in shaping the future of intensive care, highlighting clinical impact, implementation, patient value and the INDICATE Project.

Maurizio is a member of the INDICATE External Expert Advisory Board and also participated as a jury member during the INDICATE Hackathon organized taking place before the start of the ESICM Intensive Care Innovation forum. His engagement underlines the strong connection between international expertise, innovation, and the goals of the INDICATE programme.

Maurizio: “What stayed with me most was the quality of the conversations: clinicians, engineers, data scientists, industry, and innovators genuinely sitting at the same table to discuss how innovation, AI, and digital tools can actually improve patient care, not in theory, but in real life, but we need to work together to achieve a full implementation at the bedside. From crisis preparedness to everyday intensive care, from data infrastructure to decision support, one message was clear: innovation only matters if it is actionable and scalable.”
