The show takes place from the 31 October to 1 November 2017 at the NEC Birmingham, with more than 4,000 professionals dedicated to IT healthcare in attendance, coming together to discuss the frontline use of healthcare technology and just what products will shape the future of the healthcare industry.

WHY ATTEND EHI LIVE 2017?
ehi LIVE 2016 welcomed 4,000 attendees and saw a 15% increase in the number of NHS attendees compared with previous years as well as a 25% increase in private hospital attendance. The movement towards a paperless NHS has driven an increase in demand for technology to support healthcare, and this was clearly demonstrated in the discussions that took place at this year’s show.
If you work in health informatics or have a close interest in the use of information in health care, ehi LIVE 2017 is a must-go event for you. While IT professionals are at the heart of our audience, we also expect to see healthcare leaders, managers and clinicians involved in the specification, procurement, management and front line use of information systems.
ehi LIVE is also where CIO’s, CCIO’s, CEO’s, Board Members meet and discuss how concepts such as Cloud, Wearables, Informatics, Big Data, Security and Social Media can improve patient care and create smarter hospitals. It is the go-to-event for people with real buying power in the UK to search for new solutions in IT healthcare.
