By application only.

Speakers

Voices shaping the future of intelligent healthcare, from clinical executives to pioneers in AI research.

Accelerate What’s Next

Through dynamic panels and curated discussions, we’ll focus on themes that help us accelerate as leaders while exchanging ideas that spark the next wave of healthcare innovation.

Accelerate Transformation

The CIO, CMIO, and CAIO titles are being rewritten in real time. The skills, accountability, and identity that defined these roles are no longer sufficient. Leaders are being asked to reinvent their function while simultaneously leading their organizations through the same transformation.

Accelerate Responsible AI

AI adoption is outpacing regulatory alignment. As federal and state policymakers take different approaches to AI oversight, health systems are making long term vendor commitments without a clear view of the compliance landscape those technologies will face over the next several years.

Accelerate Trust

Health systems are making permanent vendor decisions inside a temporary governance vacuum. AI adoption is accelerating while the frameworks to guide it are still being written. Every deployment decision made before governance is in place is a long-term commitment dressed up as a short-term experiment.

Accelerate Beyond

Healthcare has used AI as a copilot so far - World Models represent something categorically different. World Models seek to build internal representations of cause, consequence, and uncertainty. The result could be AI that displays the kinds of intuition, judgment, and reasoning that clinicians traditionally developed through years of training, pattern recognition, and lived experience.

Same Title, Different Job: Reinventing Health IT Leadership
AI has profoundly changed the skills, accountability, and identity that once defined the CIO, CMIO, and CAIO role. These leaders are now expected to reinvent their own functions while simultaneously steering their organizations through that same transformation. This session brings together some of the leading health IT executives navigating this shift firsthand to examine what the next version of these roles actually requires - and how they are building it while still running the systems they have.

Mapping the Gap: Health System AI Governance When the Rules Can't Keep Up
AI has become core infrastructure for health systems and payors, but the compliance regime meant to govern it is still being written. This session maps the shifting terrain - federal deregulation, a fast-growing patchwork of state AI bills, and a crowded field of voluntary frameworks - and what it means for the level of risk and judgment now landing on health systems. It provides a working overview of where things stand today, and where leaders should be looking next.

Whose Governance Counts? Coalitions, Contracts, and Health Systems Caught in the Middle
Where the previous session mapped the governance landscape, this one puts the key actors inside it on stage. This panel brings together a coalition leader, two health system AI executives, and a former regulator now advising on AI contracts to argue out which governance approach is actually doing the work, where each falls short, and what that means for a health system trying to decide where to place its bets.

Beyond the Copilot: What World Models Could Mean for Clinical Judgment
AI in healthcare has so far functioned as a copilot - assisting with tasks clinicians already know how to do. World Models represent a different ambition: systems built to internally model cause, consequence, and uncertainty, the same way clinicians develop judgment through years of training and experience. This session explores what that shift could mean for the future of clinical reasoning, and how close - or far - health systems actually are from it.
