Main Takeaways

Testimonials

5/5
High-quality speakers and attendees, a great mix between healthcare providers, life science companies, providers of digital health & AI solutions, and investors.
John Mulcahy
CEO, HealthGenuity
5/5
I just think what’s also wonderful about Why Summits' conferences is that these are very local organized conferences but people fly in from everywhere. So you do get a really good representation across like 40 different companies – big, small, medium size and that’s truly where the value of this collective is. 
Kyle Derstine
Principal Product Leader, Digital Transformation, Genentech Product Development
5/5
I think the important bit that I like to have is meeting lots of new people, but having that difference of opinion and seeing some of the debates that are going on around different points of view. Because I think it's really easy when you're in your own company to only see that culture, not see areas of opportunities.
Jeremy Cooper
MD and Performance Coach, Balanced Life
5/5
An event where everyone could participate in the conversation. Great mix of Panel discussion, round table and presentations that give the ability to network and meet everyone in the room.
