Digital Impact &
Digital Futures

The Digital Impact stage shows how technology is driving real improvements in healthcare today — from virtual care and connected devices to AI decision support and cyber-resilient systems. On the Digital Futures stage, innovators explore the next frontier, from generative AI and precision medicine to immersive care models and next-gen interoperability, mapping out what healthcare could look like in 2040 and beyond.

Start-Up Program

The Start-Up & Investor Program connects healthtech innovators with investors through founder talks, category Pitchfests and one-on-one meetings. Over two days, startups showcase solutions across women’s health, patient and clinician experience and new models of care, culminating in the Pitchfest Grand Finale on the HC2040 Futures Stage.

Community Seminars

Join respected healthcare associations, researchers and professional bodies to share evidence-based insights, practical strategies and lived experience across the sector. Delivered by our official Community Partners, these sessions highlight the voices shaping policy, practice and care delivery on the ground.

Engage in a series of short, focused seminars and workshops led by leading associations, academic experts and sector bodies.

Executive Program

Designed by executives, for executives - to shape the future of health.
We’ve created a dedicated matchmaking program to help senior leaders maximise their time onsite by connecting with the right peers and solution partners. Passes are reserved exclusively for senior decision-makers in healthcare.

“The future is already here - it's just not evenly distributed.” William Gibson 

"Innovation in healthcare is proving this already. Ambient clinical scribes are transforming documentation. AI radiology reads are routine. Yet seemingly obvious applications like early chronic disease detection, behavioural nudges combining medical data with evidence-based advice, and streamlined referral pathways remain stuck in pilots.

Transformation doesn't follow our roadmaps. It arrives at the point of revulsion, where friction becomes unbearable. Clinicians adopted ambient scribes because documentation was intolerable. Radiologists embraced AI because AI picks up subtle patterns human eyes miss. Innovation sticks where pain is sharpest and capability is clearest, not where opportunity seems most obvious.
 
Join me at Healthcare 2040 Expo to discuss how we match the sharpest pain with the clearest capability to improve the lives of all Australians."

FREE WHITEPAPER
Future of Health in AI

The global AI healthcare market is projected to reach US$868 billion by 2030, yielding US$646 billion in cost savings and US$222 billion in revenue gains. 

Australian organisations that delay AI adoption now face existential risk, as 85% of healthcare leaders are already exploring or implementing generative AI capabilities, with 64% of early implementers reporting positive returns on investment.

However, with 68% of Australian companies having integrated AI technologies and a healthcare system already focused on prevention and population health, the nation has the foundation to become a global exemplar of intelligent healthcare delivery.
