ICT&health

What ICT&health does

ICT&health is a Dutch healthcare media platform headquartered in Ewijk, Netherlands, that publishes news, analysis, and editorial coverage on healthcare ICT, digital health, AI, telemedicine, robotics, interoperability, and healthcare innovation. Founded around 2015-2016, the company serves Dutch healthcare professionals, providers, technology vendors, government bodies, and academic institutions through a multi-channel content distribution model operating entirely in the Dutch language and targeting the Netherlands market.

The platform's core products consist of a quarterly ICT&health Magazine (with editions archived from 2016 through 2026), a daily news portal at icthealth.nl, a monthly newsletter, in-person events where the healthcare community convenes, and a podcast series featuring in-depth conversations. An Innovation Partner program aggregates 24+ partner organizations including Philips, KPN Health, Ministry of VWS, TNO, Radboudumc, Maastricht UMC+, Zuyderland MC, Nictiz, University of Twente, and several universities of applied sciences. Content is organized across more than 40 topic categories and is governed by a formal editorial board (redactieraad). ICT&health does not develop proprietary technology products; it operates as a content and community aggregator with no disclosed APIs, software products, or proprietary technical assets.

The business model combines recurring subscription or membership revenue, magazine sales, advertising, event participation fees, and Innovation Partner sponsorship. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market motion is community-led: content drives audience engagement among Dutch healthcare professionals, which in turn attracts sponsorship from healthcare providers, technology vendors, regulators, and academic institutions seeking visibility in the Dutch healthcare ICT conversation. The company employs 11-50 people, is privately held with no disclosed external investors or funding rounds, and operates under independent ownership.
