Dubai, Monday, 10 November 2025.
At GITEX GLOBAL 2025 in Dubai, experts highlighted AI and quantum computing’s role in accelerating healthcare innovation, predicting $1.7 trillion in biotech investments this year.

Strategic Developments in AI and Quantum Computing

The convergence of artificial intelligence and quantum computing has been a focal point at GITEX GLOBAL 2025, held from 13 to 17 October in Dubai. This event showcased over 6,800 exhibitors and 2,000 startups from 180 countries, all emphasizing the transformative potential of digital health and biotech sectors [4]. This convergence is not merely about technological advancements; it represents a strategic shift in how healthcare systems are designed and operated. With these technologies, the pace of medical research and development is accelerating, allowing for simulations and validations of complex healthcare discoveries in just days, a process that traditionally took years [4].

Long-term Impacts on Healthcare Systems

The integration of AI and quantum computing into healthcare is expected to generate over $1.7 trillion in AI-driven biotech investments by the end of 2025 [4]. This significant financial influx is aimed at addressing current global healthcare challenges, such as budget constraints and aging populations, by enhancing efficiency and accessibility of care. The ISPOR Institute for Healthcare Transformation, launched on November 10, 2025, aims to bridge health economics with real-world applications, supporting global health policy and decision-making [2]. Such initiatives underscore the systemic changes needed to leverage these technologies effectively.

Systemic Changes and Policy Implications

Further systemic changes are expected as organizations like the Health Care Transformation Task Force work to align private and public sector efforts in the U.S. The Task Force emphasizes value-based payment systems and person-centered care, crucial elements for transforming the healthcare landscape [3]. These changes are supported by policy frameworks that aim to reduce costs and improve health outcomes, showcasing a shift from reactive to proactive healthcare models [3].

Future Directions and Innovations

The future of healthcare innovation is being shaped by global collaborations and summits. For instance, the Universal ‘AI for Health’ Summit, held in late October 2025, emphasized the importance of responsible AI deployment in healthcare. This summit brought together leaders from various sectors to discuss AI’s role in transforming healthcare delivery [5]. Moreover, these discussions are crucial as academic and industry partnerships, like those seen at the Saudi AI & Edge Hackathon, continue to drive forward intelligent system solutions [6]. As these technologies evolve, they promise not only to enhance healthcare delivery but to fundamentally redefine the healthcare experience globally.
