Meet AHSN Network health innovation experts at HETT 2021

Join us at HETT 2021, the UK’s leading healthcare technology and digital health event taking place on 28 and 29 September at ExCeL London.

HETT connects digital leaders with world-leading health technology innovators, provides real-life case studies and learnings from expert speakers, and makes it easy to network with the people that matter. This is all designed to help drive digital transformation across the healthcare sector.

Four forums will cover the following key themes:

• Digitally Empowered Patients
• Culture and Implementation
• Integration and Interoperability
• Digital Maturity.
  

Come and hear from our experts from across the AHSN Network speaking on a vast array of subjects, and catch up with them and other colleagues on our exhibition stand.
