The World Dementia Council is holding a high-level virtual roundtable focused on early lessons from delivering treatments to patients. It is the first of three virtual roundtable focused on the impact of treatments ahead of a high-level summit, hosted by the World Dementia Council in London on the impact of distruption in March 2025. 

The roundtable discussions will help shape a policy paper that will be published later in the year. This high level dialogue will bring together leading researchers, industry, policymakers and advocates to discuss current challenges and explore collaborative opportunities within the region.

Date: Thursday 23 January
Time: 1500-1630 GMT
Platform: Zoom
