Chicago Digital Health Tech (Chicago DHT) Breakfast Networking and Panel
Chicago Digital Health Tech (Chicago DHT)
Please join us for the first-ever Chicago Digital Health Tech (Chicago DHT) event featuring a breakfast networking session followed by an engaging panel discussion on how Chicago companies are revolutionizing hospital care.
Networking Breakfast: 8:00 – 9:00 a.m.
Panel Discussion: 9:00 – 10:00 a.m
While our city is one of the top hubs for digital health investment—alongside the Bay Area, New York, Boston, and Nashville—there are relatively few forums dedicated to connecting digital health founders, investors, and industry leaders. Chicago DHT seeks to bridge that gap, fostering collaboration and highlighting Chicago's role in driving healthcare innovation.
At our inaugural event, you'll hear from four trailblazing Chicago companies—KeyCare, Mercurial AI, Artisight, and Cofactor AI—who are transforming hospital care through cutting-edge technology. Their innovations include expanding virtual care, automating clinical workflows, personalizing treatment plans, and streamlining insurance processes. Additionally, the founders will share their experiences navigating Chicago's startup ecosystem and explain why they continue to grow their businesses in this vibrant city.
