Conferences and symposiums Welcome to the OHDSI Sweden Symposium 2025
How can OMOP help Sweden unlock the potential of its health data?
The OHDSI Sweden Symposium 2025 will bring together leaders, researchers, and innovators across healthcare, life science, policy and patient organizations to explore how the international data model OMOP and assets from the open-science community OHDSI can unlock the value of Sweden’s health data.
Participants will see examples how OMOP and OHDSI connect to national and European strategies, and how it enables data-driven and patient-centered healthcare, research, and innovation.

The OMOP 4 Sweden movement!
The adoption of OMOP is accelerating across the world, now is a great opportunity for Sweden to jump on the train, and the global life science community welcomes us. Welcome to join the OMOP 4 Sweden movement!
Why have we organized this event?
- Swedish health data is not leveraged to the extend it should, we want to change that! We owe it to our patients, to our healthcare staff and to our society.
- More people need to learn about OMOP, an open community-driven standard with free open-source tools that avoid vendor lock-in and enable reproducible analytics worldwide.
- To demonstrate how federated analytics works: data stays local, queries travel, enabling international collaboration while protecting privacy.
- To showcase concrete examples of real healthcare delivery, research and innovation already powered by OMOP.
- To show how OMOP complements existing health data standards (openEHR, FHIR, SNOMED CT) by providing the analytical layer.
- To position OMOP in relation to Sweden’s strategic priorities: EHDS, national life science strategy, key strategic initiatives and investments in registries and digital health.
- To build engagement and momentum for national adoption by highlighting opportunities for researchers, healthcare providers, government, and industry to collaborate.
