Future Health Summit (FHS)

Where healthcare’s future is decided

Future Health Summit is an invitation-only leadership forum bringing together senior healthcare executives, policymakers, innovators, and investors to explore how AI will shape global health systems.

Through private, moderated roundtables, participants engage in closed-door discussions on real-world challenges, policy priorities, and the responsible, scalable adoption of AI across healthcare.

AI: Signals, Shocks and Strategic shifts

This year’s theme explores three dimensions defining the decade ahead, and how leaders need to react:

Signals

Emerging patterns, data and early indicators shaping the future of care.

Shocks

Disruptions, risks and inflection points created by rapid AI adoption.

Strategic shifts

The decisions and investments needed to build resilient, intelligent and equitable health systems.
