senior leaders joined the 2026 Summit

A concentrated veteran-healthcare community spanning government, clinical leadership, technology, industry and healthcare delivery.

Why this room matters

Veteran healthcare is moving from pilots to enterprise execution

Partnership puts your organisation alongside the people deciding how technology, clinical innovation and operational change actually move through complex federal healthcare environments.

01

Get closer to the decision environment

Engage VA, VHA, DHA, state veterans leaders and healthcare stakeholders responsible for modernisation, care delivery, technology and procurement.

02

Put expertise against a live priority

Connect your capabilities to active conversations around digital health, AI, EHR, interoperability, connected care, mental health, medical technology and the veteran experience.

03

Turn visibility into useful conversations

Combine thought leadership, exhibition, hosted networking and targeted brand presence rather than relying on accidental conversations somewhere near the coffee queue.

From an industry partner

“Very beneficial event for our company, giving us the opportunity to make face-to-face contacts, get information and direction directly and meet other potential vendor partners.”

Partner with us & break through

Where does your solution fit?

VHS sits across clinical care, technology, patient experience, data and enterprise operations. That breadth matters commercially: different solutions can enter the conversation through the precise problem they help federal healthcare leaders solve.

The useful question is not “Can we sponsor?” It is: “Which part of the veteran-healthcare agenda gives us the most credible reason to be in the room?”

Build the partnership around the audience you need to reach

Share the accounts you want to meet, the healthcare challenge your solution addresses and the commercial outcome you are trying to create. We can then work backwards to the right presence — rather than starting with a package and hoping it fits.
