Health AI has moved from hype to execution, with a new cohort of AI native businesses scaling faster, with better unit economics and attracting both IPO and private-market capital; Bessemer’s thesis is that this “Health Tech 2.0” wave is real, not another ZIRP-style bubble.​

The European MedTech and wellness landscape in 2026 is defined by a profound convergence of clinical rigor, environmental mandate, and digital intelligence. The industry has moved beyond the "wild west" phase of early biohacking and entered a period of definitive professionalisation, catalysed by the full enforcement of the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and the emergence of the EU AI Act. As health systems across the continent grapple with aging populations and a

The emergence of deeply integrated, autonomous health technologies, termed the "Medical Ghost" in this analysis, signals a paradigm shift in healthcare delivery. This new class of medical devices and software operates entirely in the background, utilising ambient sensors to diagnose conditions and autonomously execute therapeutic interventions without requiring conscious user awareness or interaction. This convergence of pervasive computing and closed-loop medical systems nec

The digital transformation of healthcare represents a profound industry evolution, shifting the focus from episodic treatment to continuous, proactive intervention. This new paradigm, known broadly as Digital Health, utilises technology to facilitate active therapeutic engagement and deliver care outside traditional clinical settings, effectively realising the concept of "virtual hospital wards" and enabling remote diagnostics. This movement is supported by a massive and rapi

The MedTech mergers and acquisitions (M&A) landscape is undergoing a profound and irreversible transformation. The traditional playbook, which long emphasised incremental product improvements and narrowly focused acquisitions, has become largely obsolete. A new era has emerged, defined by the strategic convergence of medical technology, data intelligence, and consumer-centric care models.
