The DMEA, Europe’s largest trade fair for digital healthcare, is now history. It concluded with record-breaking numbers: 23,000 attendees, over 900 exhibitors, and 470 speakers – sold out. The participation was also worthwhile for Telekom. Our photo show takes you to the Telekom booth at DMEA, providing insights into new solutions like TI-Connect, use cases for AI and cloud, as well as many interactions with customers and partners.
The #OneHealthTeam just before the start of DMEA. The excitement is huge. Hundreds of customer meetings have already been scheduled in advance. From April 21 to 23, Europe’s largest trade fair for digital healthcare expects well over 20,000 professional visitors. 900 exhibitors will be presenting in Berlin. Telekom is the only end to end provider on site. Cloud, AI, hospital information systems, security, telematics infrastructure — the Group brings everything a modern healthcare system needs.
Taleb Ourgamli presents TI‑Connect, a new access point to the telematics infrastructure, to visitors. This significantly eases day to day work for medical practices, care facilities, and hospitals. TI Connect enables healthcare professionals to focus on their patients rather than on updates and device maintenance. “Our customers from medical practices, hospitals, and the care sector keep telling us: please make it simple. And that’s exactly what we’re doing. TI Connect works reliably and with minimal effort,” Ourgamli explains.
Highlight of the first day: Federal Minister of Health Nina Warken visited the Telekom booth. Gottfried Ludewig presented her with the sovereign patient record that the Group had exclusively unveiled the day before at the Future Health Day.
Nathalie Winkler is an expert for iMedOne and iMedOne Mobile, the hospital information system of Deutsche Telekom. It ensures that physicians, nursing staff, and administrative employees never lose track.
Jaqueline Wagner (left) and Katja Paulus (right) explain the digital nursing report to Corinna Jahn from Diakonie Hospital Bremen. In the future, nurses in hospitals will be able to dictate the necessary treatment information directly at the patient’s bedside into an iPad. The speech is automatically converted into clear, structured nursing reports—processed in the sovereign T Cloud Public, entirely within German data centers.
Uwe Samer (NVIDIA) and Rene Leutold (right) are working together on digital twins for hospitals. Digital twins virtually map hospital infrastructures and workflows. In OR logistics, for example, equipment availability, cleaning times, and staff scheduling are simulated to optimize utilization, avoid bottlenecks, and reduce costs. The Telekom/ T-Systems Industrial AI Cloud is the ideal environment for this application.
Elisabeth Ries from Telekom MMS explains the Vitality Check. With the app, people can use their smartphone to capture vital signs such as pulse, stress level, and heart rate via an AI supported facial scan in just a few seconds. Contactless, GDPR compliant, and without additional devices. The app analyzes and assesses health status. If values are abnormal, initial recommendations for improvement are provided—for example, dietary changes, exercise suggestions, or visiting a doctor. Ideal for companies that want to digitally promote health awareness, prevention, and modern employee benefits.
Concentrated consulting expertise from Detecon at the booth: Matthias Salge, Oliver Grotzius, Helena Quadt, Laura Wagner, Sanja Padlija, Dmitriy Trebukhovsky, and Shadi Mohadessi contribute their know‑how.
Paul Hellwig is “Mister AI Health” at Telekom. During one of the many booth tours, he explained various use cases of artificial intelligence in healthcare to a knowledgeable audience—for example, the use of AI agents in emergency departments, which is currently being piloted in hospitals in the city of Cologne.
One of the foundations of digitalization in healthcare is the cloud. Telekom offers a secure, sovereign cloud system for hospitals, medical practices, health insurance companies, and many others—from planning and operation to optimization. More information on T Cloud
Contract signing at the trade fair:Karl Jaspers Clinic from Bad Zwischenahn has opted for TI Connect 2.0. This gives the facility a new access to the telematics infrastructure. The previously required connector is no longer needed. For the organization, this means less effort overall. Access is faster, and updates, upgrades, or configuration work are carried out directly in the data center – unnoticed and without any on site intervention.

The new COO Health, Uwe Heckert, was clearly enjoying himself shortly before the start of day two of his very first DMEA at Telekom.
On the second day as well, Telekom’s booth continues to attract large crowds. Under the umbrella of the #OneHealthTeam, numerous group entities are represented: T Health, T Business, T Cloud, Detecon, Security, Telekom MMS, TechBoost, T-Systems Austria, T-Systems Switzerland – and, for the first time, synedra.
Providing orientation and a great atmosphere: the welcome team Mireille Napoa, Sylvia Pütz, Szilvia Szabo, Felix Leitschuh, Anja Malmede, and Ben Zizkat.
More than satisfied: The executives of the T Health division. From left to right: Uwe Heckert, Gottfried Ludewig, Janine Haschke and Udo Lingen.
“The DMEA has shown that our offerings are well received by the market. We held hundreds of conversations with customers. Our AI, security, cloud and product solutions are in higher demand than ever before. And we are perceived as an end-to-end provider that has everything in its portfolio – from consulting and implementation to secure and sovereign operations and optimization,” says Gottfried Ludewig.
The new COO Health, Uwe Heckert, was in high demand at his DMEA premiere. For example, he represented Telekom at the panel discussion “Regional Healthcare Networks in Germany: From Concept to Implementation.”
Team Austria at the booth. Patrick Jäger, Mihaela Frenzel and Shirin La Garde (from left to right) presented, among other things, an intelligent billing solution for hospitals for the domestic market.
