It convenes NHS digital leadership, including chief information officers, chief clinical information officers and chief nursing information officers, alongside clinicians, health-tech vendors and start-ups. The programme runs across multiple themed stages covering electronic patient records, integrated care, artificial intelligence, cyber security and digital leadership, drawing around 4,000 attendees and more than 300 speakers, and is free to attend for NHS and public-sector staff. ## What Digital Health Rewired is for Rewired exists to move the digital transformation of the NHS forward in one place. Its programme is built around the operational priorities of NHS organisations, from electronic patient record deployment to the safe adoption of clinical AI, and its audience is the NHS digital community itself rather than a general commercial crowd. The free NHS admission and the strong chief information and clinical information officer presence make it the meeting point for the people responsible for NHS digital strategy, with a health-tech exhibition alongside. ## Who attends Digital Health Rewired - NHS chief information, clinical information and nursing information officers - NHS chief executives and digital transformation leaders - Frontline clinicians engaged in digital change - Health-tech vendors and suppliers to the NHS - Digital health start-ups - Integrated care system and board digital leaders - Health policymakers ## What Digital Health Rewired covers programmatically The conference runs across themed stages: - Digital transformation - Integrated care - Artificial intelligence - Cyber security - Digital leadership - Data and digital - Electronic patient record implementation and optimisation - Patient engagement and the digital frontline ## Programme tracks and special formats Rewired is organised as multiple parallel stages, each devoted to a theme such as AI, cyber security, integrated care or EPR optimisation, alongside an exhibition floor and a start-up programme for early-stage health-tech companies. ## Notable speakers The programme is led by NHS digital leadership and clinical informatics figures, with the full 2027 line-up confirmed closer to the event. ## FAQ · Identity and audience ### Is Digital Health Rewired only for the NHS? In practice it is NHS-anchored. The audience is largely NHS and public-sector digital leadership and clinicians, and the content is built around NHS priorities. Commercial vendors attend to reach that audience, and admission is free for NHS and public-sector staff. ### How does it differ from HETT Show or GIANT Health? All three are UK NHS-focused, but they differ in timing and emphasis. Rewired is the digital-transformation and clinical-informatics event in March at the NEC, with a strong chief information officer community. HETT is a September ExCeL exhibition and GIANT Health a December innovation festival. Rewired sits closest to the NHS digital leadership and EPR agenda. ### Who is Digital Health Rewired NOT designed for? - Vendors with no NHS-relevant digital offering - Teams seeking a pan-European or global audience - Investors looking primarily for a startup-and-capital matchmaking event - Specialty clinicians seeking continuing medical education unrelated to digital health - Consumer health brands without a clinical or NHS remit ## The venue: The NEC, Birmingham Digital Health Rewired 2027 is held at the NEC, the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, one of the largest exhibition venues in the United Kingdom, well connected by rail and air and adjacent to Birmingham International station and airport. ## The organiser: Digital Health (CloserStill Media) Digital Health is a media brand within CloserStill Media that produces the UK's leading digital health conference and exhibition alongside a year-round programme of networks for NHS chief information and clinical information officers. That community base gives Rewired its strong NHS digital leadership participation. --- ## Editorial take *Digital Health Rewired is the UK's largest dedicated digital health event, an NHS-anchored conference and exhibition at the NEC where CIOs, CCIOs and clinicians work through electronic patient records, integrated care and clinical AI, free to attend for NHS staff.* ## How to register and what it costs Registration is through the official website.
