NHS leaders and experts will come together this December to discuss how digital technology can help deliver the 10-year plan at an exciting HSJ event, being run in association with IBM.
The one-day conference, hosted at the IBM Innovation Studio in London, will ask: How can we help drive the change we all want to see in the NHS? It will examine the role technology can play in boosting productivity, engaging the workforce, and improving patients’ experiences.

The event, which is aimed at c-suite and senior NHS leaders, will feature inspiring keynote speeches and thought-provoking panel discussions, alongside case studies and demonstrations offering practical ideas.
HSJ editor Alastair McLellan said: “Of the three ‘shifts’ the government’s NHS plan will attempt to supercharge, it is the ‘analogue to digital’ transition that will prove most consequential. This is because, as well as being significant in itself, it will provide the most effective route for the other two shifts: ‘hospital to community’, and ‘care to prevention’.
“Our joint event with IBM will bring together some of the sharpest minds and most influential figures in British healthcare to debate how the digital shift should be achieved, and what the 10-year plan can do to speed that change.”
Angela Spatharou, IBM healthcare and lifesciences leader, UKI/EMEA, added: “The 10-year plan will have digital transformation at its core. This doesn’t just mean digitising what currently happens, but rather engaging in a design conversation to reimagine a model of delivery enabled by emerging digital capability.
“Ten years is a long time in healthcare, but it is several generations of digital capability and therefore that conversation will need to be iterative and ongoing as new technology emerges.
“We look forward to hosting this important event to examine these themes with all participants.”
This event will take place at the IBM Innovation Studio in London on 3 December from 9:30am until 5pm, followed by networking drinks. Click here to find out more and register your interest.
