Following these two insightful days, I wanted to thank you for the incredibly warm welcome and kind feedback. 
Here is my Bingo card 😁


🖼 Musée du Quai Branly

  • Photo of something at Musée du Quai Branly that sparked your curiosity

Le Jardin d’O outside the Museum

  • Describe one Musée du Quai Branly exhibit in three words

Much common ancestry!

The Diola mask from Senegal with horns, woven leafs canvas and seeds, share similarities with Celt masks of Cernunos made of plants, fruits and deer horns

  • An exhibit you’d like to revisit and why

I'm particularly interested in the musical instrument collection, we did not have the time to visit

  • Your favorite song sung by Laure Poissonnier at the Gala dinner

« Take Me to the Moon » 🌙

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars — Oscar Wilde

🎤 Sessions & Ideas

  • A project you discovered at READY and one question you have about it

CHU Toulouse FHIR + interop, a very inspiring design. I wonder what is the strategy for change/release management, such as FHIR release migration.

  • The most unexpected analogy used by a speaker

Zweder Bergman talking about how difficult it is to pick a bakery in Paris and comparing this to the many choices facing us with FHIR interoperabiliy

  • One key takeaway from a session

From « Care Coordination: From Patient Journey to Sustainable Population Health » : public health agencies often do not measure the value of prevention and how quality data exchange networks contribute to cost reduction.

  • A session outside your usual role and what surprised you

Retailer SPAR putting InterSytems technologies to effective and global use on such a large scale is quite surprising to me, I wonder how it initially sparked.

☕️ Informal Moments

  • A READY conversation that made you laugh

Chatting about where we are now, in a world obsessed by AI, with MUMPS developers about my age 😁

  • Your favorite non-session moment of the day

Meeting Egveny Shvarov, Guillaume Rongier, Irène Mykhailova and Anastasia Dyubaylo in real life : we are now more than avatars to each other 😊

  • One insight gained outside a session

The vast collection of python libraries is now available to IRIS, and it’s especially useful when dealing with AI. Thanks @Guillaume Rongier 
 for pointing this out !

  • Your favorite informal discussion (coffee, lunch, evening)

During the evening, chatting about using a FHIR repository a central storage for an hospital, and how it empowers the institution vs data being captive in supplier software. Also outlining how it is difficult to convince hospital boards and software suppliers to invest in the technology, the ROI being on the long term.

🤝 Reflection & Connections

  • Photo of your favorite session

  • Your READY moment of the day (one emoji + one sentence)

Learning more about EHDS initiative 😎

  • Exchange business cards or LinkedIn with two attendees

I offered some cards during informal moments, but cards seems to be somewhat deprecated, and attendees did not have a card to exchange.

  • Meet someone new at READY and tag them in your post

It was a pleasure to meet @Lorenzo Scalese  in real life, and sharing about developping with ObjectScript.
