What’s New at HETT 2025?

Every year, HETT showcases the latest developments in digital health and care.

For 2025, we’ve designed new spaces and experiences that reflect the big questions on everyone’s mind. How can we harness digital tools to improve outcomes? How do we safeguard data systems? How can we use AI responsibly?

These new features will help you explore such questions through collaborative problem-solving, expert insights, and direct exposure to the breakthroughs shaping healthcare today.

Here’s a closer look at what’s new this year.

Experience Innovation

Start-up Showcase

Each year, HETT highlights pioneering solutions that are transforming health and care. In 2025, we’re taking it a step further with the Start-up Showcase.

This inspiring session brings together four trailblazing companies that are reimagining how care is delivered: iRhythm, ND Axon, Life Analytics, Prsonas.

Across a series of dynamic 15-minute presentations, each start-up will share real-world solutions that are already enhancing patient outcomes, improving healthcare accessibility, and streamlining clinical processes.

Between sessions, attendees will have the chance to ask questions and engage directly with the innovators influencing the future of healthcare technology.

AI Spotlight

The advent of AI has transformed various industries, and healthcare is no exception. From diagnostics and predictive analytics to workflow automation and patient engagement, AI is reshaping how care is provided.

Staying ahead of these developments is key to ensuring safe, efficient, and equitable care – which is why HETT 2025 is shining a spotlight on AI.

Through a series of expert-led talks, delegates can discover how cutting-edge AI technologies are being translated from research concepts into clinical settings.

Dell Healthcare Village

Another fresh addition to the show floor is the Dell Healthcare Village. Bringing together the expertise of Dell Technologies and its trusted partners, this dedicated space showcases practical solutions created to support the NHS.

From AI-powered tools and secure data platforms to clinical mobility, digital pathology, and EPR hosting, every solution on display has been selected to assist clinicians and improve service delivery across the healthcare system.

The Dell Healthcare Village is more than an exhibition; it’s a hub of innovation where visitors can see firsthand how collaboration and world-leading technology are redefining patient care.

Learn and Collaborate

Roundtable Area

To move new ideas in the NHS forward, you need open, honest conversations. That’s why HETT 2025 has introduced the Roundtable Area: small-group, participant-led discussions created to foster genuine dialogue in a safe, confidential space.

Those who attend will have the opportunity to share lived experiences, test ideas, and explore tangible solutions to a range of sensitive and complex topics. With a mix of open and invite-only formats, participants will leave with clarity, connections, and actionable insights they wouldn’t get from a keynote or panel.

NHS Records Management Theatre

HETT 2025 is the first significant opportunity for the health tech community to discuss the government’s 10-Year Plan for England. Integral to this plan is the move from analogue to digital systems.

Records management sits at the heart of this transformation, with the NHS spending £1.4bn on it in the past six years.

That’s why we’ve partnered with EDM Healthcare Consulting to launch the NHS Records Management Theatre: a dedicated space to debate the continued prevalence of paper-based health records and how both physical and digital records are stored, managed, and disposed of.

Briefing Room Podcast

Broadcasting live from the show floor, The Briefing Room Podcast brings you future health tech leaders discussing the newest advancements, directives, and trends shaping the digital healthcare ecosystem.

Hosted by The Ministry of Health Tech, the podcast will inspire and support your professional practice, connecting you with like-minded peers through expert discussions, thought-provoking interviews, and real-time updates.

Women’s Health Working Group

Women’s health takes centre stage at HETT this year. At the heart of this initiative is the newly established Women’s Health Working Group – a collective of passionate thought-leaders committed to advancing change.

Although long-standing disparities in women’s healthcare are increasingly recognised, awareness alone doesn’t save lives or build systems of trust. Through open dialogue and expert-led discussions, this group will explore how to move from awareness to actionable change.

Attendees will gain insights into how digital technology can drive this shift, while having a voice in shaping real-world solutions for more equitable care.

Build Connections

VIP Networking Programme

Conversations are critical, which is why HETT 2025 offers multiple opportunities for collaboration and networking.

For those seeking a more personalised experience, the new VIP Networking Programme provides exclusive access to the VIP Lounge, curated content streams, hosted lunches and dinners, and networking receptions.

This programme is made to elevate your presence in healthcare technology by connecting you with peers, giving you access to specialist knowledge, and helping you leave with actionable strategies and new opportunities.

Make the Most of HETT 2025

At a time when digital transformation is no longer an aspiration but a defining feature of health and care, meaningful progress requires more than observation. That’s why every new feature at HETT 2025 is designed to inform, connect, and inspire.

For attendees, this isn’t just a chance to learn about the future of digital health, but to be part of it.
