NHS Digital Leaders Forum
Overview
Join digital and innovation leaders for an opportunity to gain practical insights, challenge thinking and hear about the latest in digital developments.
Designed for board-level and senior leaders accountable for digital and innovation, this forum is your opportunity to share learning, influence national policy making and accelerate improvement.
Why this matters
Bringing together members of the legacy NHS Confederation Digital and Innovation Leaders Forum and NHS Providers' Digital Leaders Network, this forum will create a single community of digital and innovation leaders from across the NHS.
Operating under Chatham House Rule, this member-only forum will provide you an opportunity to:
- Share ideas and exchange learning.
- Gain insights from frontline digital, government and national body leaders, with opportunities to help influence future national policy.
- Engage in interactive sessions to ask questions and share your thoughts.
- Have open and honest discussions with peers in breakout sessions.
I find these very useful as a reminder of the priorities at a national level, and things we should be thinking about as a board.
