## Quick Facts

| DATES | VENUE | ORGANISER | ATTENDANCE |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3–4 December 2026 | Grand Palais, Paris | Artefact and Johnson & Johnson | 8,000+ (2025 figure, health summit) |

## Definition

AI for Health is an annual summit dedicated to applied artificial intelligence in healthcare, held at the Grand Palais in Paris. Running since 2017 and now in its ninth edition, it is co-founded by the AI and data consultancy Artefact and by Johnson & Johnson, and it forms the health vertical of the wider Adopt AI Grand Palais event. The 2026 edition runs from 3 to 4 December. It brings together pharmaceutical and medtech companies, startups, clinicians, institutions and investors around concrete AI use cases, and the 2025 edition reported more than 8,000 participants across four stages.

## When and where does AI for Health take place in 2026?

AI for Health 2026 runs from 3 to 4 December 2026 at the Grand Palais, 7 Avenue Winston Churchill, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, France. It is a two-day event.

## Who attends AI for Health?

AI for Health draws the people who build and buy AI in healthcare:

- Pharmaceutical and medtech digital and data executives
- Health technology founders and startup teams
- Clinicians and hospital innovation leads
- Investors in health and AI
- Public institutions and policymakers

## What is on the AI for Health programme?

The summit is built around concrete AI use cases and runs across four stages: a main stage, a masterclass stage, a startup stage and a demo zone. Recurring themes include:

- Applied AI across healthcare, pharma, medtech and life sciences
- A European AI-for-health startup showcase
- Masterclasses and live demonstrations of deployed AI systems
- Enterprise AI adoption, connected to the wider Adopt AI programme

## How does AI for Health compare to similar health-AI events?

AI for Health is one of the few European events at scale that leads with AI rather than treating it as one digital health theme among many.

| Event | Month 2026 | City | Focus | Typical audience | Price band |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AI for Health | December | Paris | AI-first, applied AI in health | Pharma, medtech, startups | Paid, EUR |
| HLTH Europe | June | Amsterdam | Digital health, business of health | Providers, payers, founders | Paid, EUR |
| Frontiers Health | November | Berlin | Digital health innovation | Founders, pharma, investors | EUR 295 to 1,675 |

## FAQ · Identity and audience

### Is AI for Health a standalone event?

It is a standalone summit with its own history since 2017, now hosted as the health vertical inside the Adopt AI Grand Palais event. That means an AI for Health pass sits within a larger cross-industry AI summit that also runs verticals for finance, industry and other sectors.

### How AI-focused is the programme?

Fully. Unlike digital health conferences that include AI as one theme, AI for Health is defined by artificial intelligence applied to health, from drug discovery to clinical operations to medtech.

### Who is AI for Health NOT designed for?

- Attendees seeking a clinical continuing-education programme
- Buyers looking for a medical device exhibition floor
- Teams wanting a small, closed roundtable format
