Suppliers
The 2023 Connections Summit is where suppliers can shape the solutions for the healthcare industry. This purposeful intention unites us around the shared vision of improving patient care. You’ll have a unique opportunity to connect with healthcare providers, industry experts, and potential partners. Collaborate with industry leaders and decision makers to view the landscape of the healthcare industry from a broader perspective and identify untapped opportunities. You also won’t want to miss the supplier awards, connect sessions, and the all-attendee celebration event on Wednesday night.
Unifying the diversity of our experiences and knowledge accelerates positive change, rallying us around our shared vision: improving healthcare for all patients. Together, we will soar. Take the opportunity to be part of something extraordinary. Register now and join us as we redefine the possibilities of patient care.
