Where innovation comes to life

What is WHX Tech?

WHX Tech is a curated digital health platform bringing together the leaders, innovators, startups, investors and decision-makers driving healthcare’s digital transformation.

Taking place during World Healthcare Week, WHX Tech connects digital health innovation with the clinical, commercial and policy communities needed to take ideas from concept to real-world impact. 

It is built for the people shaping the next phase of healthcare transformation. The event brings together CIOs, CTOs, clinicians, startups, investors, buyers, regulators, government bodies and digital health companies in a curated environment designed for purposeful connection, practical insight and commercial outcomes.

Unlike a traditional trade show, WHX Tech is focused on quality over quantity. Every part of the experience is designed to help the right people meet, the right ideas gain visibility and the right partnerships move forward.


About WHX Tech

Digital health needs more than ideas

Healthcare technology is moving quickly, but the real challenge is adoption.

Health systems, providers, investors and innovators need clearer pathways for testing, funding, buying and scaling digital solutions. WHX Tech exists to bring those conversations together in one place.

It connects innovation with the people who can evaluate it, fund it, implement it and take it to market.
