Paris, September 30th, 2021 - Future4Care welcomes Olivier Guérin, Professor of Geriatrics, as Vice President. Working with Future4Care's operational team, Olivier Guérin's ambition is to support the development of this European digital healthcare ecosystem. 

Head of the Geriatrics Department at Nice University Hospital, Olivier Guérin is also a university professor. With his teams, he is developing the digital theme for Health and Autonomy, with the creation of evaluation and experimentation platforms grouped within the Health Innovation and Usage Center. He leads national action in this digital and silver eco context within France Silver Eco (FSE), of which he is 1st vice-president. From 2014 to 2020, he was deputy mayor of Nice, responsible for health, autonomy and the silver economy, and a metropolitan councilor.

I'm delighted to welcome Olivier Guérin to our team. I'm convinced that he will make a major contribution to Future4care's development and reputation, thanks to his expertise and forward-looking vision of the e-health sector. His public sector background and knowledge of the private sector are also essential assets for us in defragmenting the sector and fostering the emergence and development of a multidisciplinary ecosystem. As Vice-President of Future4Care, Olivier Guérin's role with the team is to define the themes of calls for projects, to identify and support start-ups, thanks to his proximity to hospital and academic circles and his roots in the ecosystem, and to represent Future4care at major events linked to healthcare and digital health.
