Thomas,

Just submitted an abstract:

Title: Ligne de vie

Abstract:

FLOSS in health is already a strong movement in the medical domain, a
place where it competes with dominant commercial actors.

The tipping point for extensive e-health adoption is probably in a
different, citizen centered, reference frame.

We will describe the theoretical concepts underlying the shift from a
care place centered reference frame to a citizen centered reference
frame and explain the reasons why it leads to a genuine paradigm shift
in health.

This paradigm shift will be accurately described and, from a
demonstration of the Ligne de vie open source software, we will explore
original solutions in term of knowledge management and a brand new
approach of the risk dimension.

Finally we will explain why, if open source provides interesting
advantages in existing competitive markets (Red Oceans), it can become a
decisive concept to create brand new open domains (Blue Oceans).

Best,

Philippe
