Health Elevate 2025 was a standout moment for the sector, not just because of the calibre of innovation on show, but because of the conversations it sparked. What struck me most was how many new connections were made across the ecosystem. Founders, clinicians, investors, academics — people who might not otherwise cross paths — were in the same room, talking openly about shared challenges and opportunities. That kind of cross-pollination is where real momentum starts.
Diagnostics was a recurring theme, and rightly so. It’s no longer just a supporting act in the care pathway — it’s becoming central to how we personalise treatment, manage population health, and reduce pressure on frontline services. Whether it was AI-powered screening, point-of-care testing, or remote monitoring, the innovation in this space is moving fast; we had all this on display through our fantastic exhibitors — and it’s encouraging to see it getting the attention it deserves.
It was a privilege to be part of it — and I’m looking forward to seeing how the conversations started there continue to grow.
