Dear Global Health Hub Member,  

we are pleased to invite you to the virtual Global Health Hub Germany Matchmaking Event from 10 February to 12 February 2026 — our new online gathering for all Hub members to connect, collaborate, and build impactful partnerships across the network. 

Building on the successful post-conference Matchmaking Event after the Global Health Talk in June 2025, we are excited to establish the online Matchmaking as an annual event, offering you the opportunity to connect and network with fellow members of the Global Health Hub community. 

On the official matchmaking platform, you can network and exchange knowledge across sectors: meet managers and members from different communities of practice, steering committee representatives and connect directly other experts. Register now to schedule one-on-one conversations to explore new collaborations and exchange expertise. 

This year, the event will also feature expert keynotes, and our hub communities will present their work and projects to invite for active participation.

• GAVI - Markus Beck  

• WHO – Dr. Julia Fitzner
