We are thrilled to welcome you to the official website of the 9th annual London Business School (LBS) Healthcare Conference, hosted by the LBS Healthcare Club with the generous support of our sponsors: The Boston Consulting Group, GlaxoSmithKline, and Johnson & Johnson. This year’s conference, entitled “Digital Healthcare: Connecting the Dots”, will take place the evening of Thursday, February 22 2018 at the Royal College of Physicians in London. To learn more about the event and reserve your space, please proceed to the “Conference agenda” and “Tickets” pages of this site.

Digital healthcare is a critical area of today’s healthcare ecosystem, but with all the buzz about it, how are companies on the forefront of innovation actually becoming “digital”? The conference will focus on the practice of digital healthcare, and how global healthcare companies have successfully become digital leaders. The purpose of the conference is to bring leaders from across the healthcare value chain together to listen, learn, and take away a practical toolkit for implementing digital initiatives at their own organizations. The evening will include a keynote speech, two panels, closing remarks and a reception, where attendees can further their discussion on the topics covered by the speakers. The event will be interactive, with audience Q&A built into the sessions to ensure that presenters focus on the issues most relevant and interesting to the audience.

Please note that speakers and panelists may be subject to change.

UPDATE: THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT. Thank you for your interest and support of the LBS Healthcare Club!
