Introduction

On December 18, 2025, the 6th Healthcare Dx Forum hosted by Seed Planning Co., Ltd. will take place in Tokyo, focusing on initiatives related to next-generation healthcare, which encompasses a broad definition of healthcare services. As society undergoes significant transformations, including the concept of Society 5.0, the importance of using digital data and advancing digital transformation (DX) has never been clearer.

Purpose of the Healthcare Dx Forum

The Healthcare Dx Forum, which has been ongoing since 2016, provides a platform for industry professionals to explore the utilization of big data in healthcare.

• - Medical and healthcare DX
• - Data-driven approaches to disease-specific treatments
• - Real-world data usage in future medical practices
• - Drug discovery solutions using big data
• - DX in the fields of regenerative medicine and cell therapy

The forum aims to enhance understanding and stimulate discussions around these topics, making it essential for organizations eager to engage in next-generation healthcare initiatives.
