Realising the benefits of transformation, achieving productivity, and insights on the digital vision for the NHS

The HSJ Digital Transformation Summit convenes the most senior digital, clinical, and operational leaders from across health and care to explore how the NHS can truly deliver on the ambition of the 10-Year Digital Plan.

As the system enters a critical delivery phase, this year’s Summit focuses on embedding transformational technologies, enabling true interoperability, and supporting the leadership required to scale digital solutions that work. Sessions will explore everything from EPR optimisation and AI deployment to workforce resilience, digital inclusion, and the future NHS tech stack.

Leaders will examine how digital transformation can drive systemic value, enhancing productivity, enabling prevention, and building trust through transparency, co-design, and smarter infrastructure.

Taking place on 5–6 February 2026, the Summit offers an essential forum to connect strategic ambition with local delivery, and ensure that digital becomes foundational, not optional, in the decade ahead.
