Meetings will take place in 2020 and 2021 at Schloss Leopoldskron, in Salzburg, Austria

Are you a leader in health or health care with an outstanding record of achievement? Are you a strategic thinker looking to solve key challenges facing health and health care systems? Are you interested in collaborating across sectoral boundaries, both nationally and internationally? This could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Sciana: The Health Leaders Network is delighted to announce applications are now being collected from professionals who wish to join its fourth cohort. The first of four meetings will take place between May 12-16, 2020.

The network is designed to bring together outstanding leaders in health and health care policy and innovation. It is supported by a partnership between the Health Foundation (UK), Careum Stiftung (Switzerland), and the Robert Bosch Stiftung (Germany) in collaboration with Salzburg Global Seminar.

These leaders primarily live and work in one of the three countries of the founding partners (UK, Switzerland, and Germany) and share a deep commitment to quality, sustainability, universal coverage, and patient and community-centered care, nationally and internationally.

All meetings are held at Schloss Leopoldskron, in Salzburg, Austria. Meetings begin around lunchtime on the first day and end early afternoon on the last day.

As places on the network are limited and highly sought after, all Sciana members must be committed to attending all four days of each of the four meetings. This is non-negotiable and a prerequisite for any application. 

The deadline for applications is September 30, 2019.
