Unlike the weather, which included a thunderstorm and snow, ViVE 2025 was most welcoming with the super-organised HLTH team making the event run smoothly.

With so many health-related conferences competing for attendees, selecting the right one requires careful consideration beyond just ticket prices and location.

Why VIVE Stands Out:

• Strong CIO Presence: ViVE attracts a substantial number of CIOs from healthcare providers, making it a prime event for suppliers of health technologies, including EHRs, cybersecurity, interoperability, and analytics.

• Expanding Scope: ViVE and HLTH continuously broaden their focus. This year, oral health was introduced, showcasing a range of dental innovations.

• High-Quality Content & Speakers: Once again, ViVE delivered first-class sessions and expert discussions.

• Exhibition Excellence: The event featured a vast array of high-quality booths, including dedicated AI and InteropNow Pavilions, as well as a cybersecurity zone packed with valuable insights.

• Unique Networking Opportunities: Unlike other conferences, ViVE offers curated opportunities for buyers and sellers to connect, from exclusive breakfasts and receptions to the structured Connected meeting program.

• Great On-Site Experience: Attendees enjoyed healthy food options and well-designed seating areas for dining and networking.

We had a successful Partner Programme with sessions on Nashville as a strategic Gateway for Global Digital Health Ventures, Best Practices and Clubs, an introduction to EHDS for US businesses and European Funding for US businesses. 

We announced at VIVE  the appointment of Eric Thrailkill as our Executive Director for US Operations to lead the expansion of our US work where we are looking to recruit more members and Ecosystems and to launch a range of best practices and clubs.

We held a sell-out breakfast with the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce and Womble Bond Dickinson to continue their series on Global Health Innovators. We introduced the ECHAlliance and our 84 International Ecosystem communities. Scott Hamilton the US Figure Skating Gold Olympic Medallist stole the show with an uplifting talk about his cancer journey and the amazing work his CARES Foundation for Cancer Alliance for Research Education & Survivorship does.
