In spring 2025, an inspiring exchange on the topic of IT innovation in the healthcare sector took place in the new building of St.Gallen Hospital. Organized by cora technology solutions AG, the event offered an exclusive insight into the IT organization of HOCH Health Ostschweiz.

Colin Elmer, Team Leader Hardware Service, presented how his ten-strong IT support team efficiently manages operations for around 8,500 users - thanks to intelligent automation and innovative approaches. His practical explanations, spiced up with a pinch of humor, made the morning a real highlight. You can find the reference story about cora at HOCH Health Eastern Switzerland here.
