About the GEMS 2026
Since its inception, GEMS has highlighted the critical role of Emergency Medical Services in saving lives and strengthening public health systems. More than an ambulance response, EMS is a multidisciplinary ecosystem involving prevention, preparedness, rapid intervention, and recovery.
GEMS 2026 represents a significant progression — shifting the global conversation from operational readiness to system intelligence and resilience architecture. As the premier platform for EMS leaders, innovators, and policymakers, this summit unites the brightest minds in emergency healthcare from across the world.
The 6th edition builds on the success of previous Summits by showcasing global best practices, exploring digital health and AI integration, discussing EMS intersections with occupational health, and strengthening collaboration across government, industries, healthcare providers, and communities.
Mission 2026
The mission of GEMS 2026 is to accelerate the global transformation of Emergency Medical Services by fostering innovation, policy alignment, technological integration, and cross-sector collaboration.
We aim to:
- Promote intelligent Emergency Medical Systems (EMS) models powered by artificial intelligence and predictive analytics
- Enable autonomous Emergency Medical Systems (EMS) technologies including drones, robotics, and smart dispatch systems
- Strengthen climate-resilient and disaster-ready frameworks
- Bridge the gap between public and private emergency systems
- Empower industrial and occupational health leaders to integrate emergency preparedness
- Develop sustainable and environmentally responsible Emergency Medical Systems (EMS) mode
- Build capacity through leadership, training, and workforce development
Through dialogue, demonstration, and collaboration, GEMS seeks measurable impact in emergency system performance and patient outcomes.
Vision
To position GEMS as a globally recognized catalyst for Emergency Medical Systems (EMS) transformation — shaping policy, fostering innovation, and driving the design of intelligent, autonomous, and resilient emergency systems for the next decade and beyond.
We envision a world where:
- Emergency Medical Systems (EMS) systems predict risk before crisis strikes
- Response networks operate seamlessly across borders
- Technology enhances human expertise
- Industrial ecosystems integrate emergency preparedness
- Communities are empowered as first responders
- Sustainability is embedded within emergency operations
