Global Digital Health Forum 2020

From December 7-9, the Global Digital Health Network will convene the Global Digital Health Forum 2020 -- the leading global industry networking and relationship-building opportunity for technology vendors, donors, researchers, government representatives, and implementing organizations working in low- and middle-income countries to advance public health outcomes.

The theme for this year's event - making digital health work for everyone - seeks to balance the need for evidence based scaling of proven systems with the urgent need to determine how emerging technologies and approaches can dramatically improve health outcomes for all.

For the first time ever, The Global Digital Health Forum will be a virtual event, with capacity for 3,000 attendees. Though we shifted to a virtual format in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Network is leveraging this opportunity to make the Global Digital Health Forum itself work for everyone, with increased participation from the Americas, Africa, and Asia, sessions in English, French, and Spanish, and waived conference fees for participants from LMICs and students.
