About the Summit
Where Healthcare Innovation Meets Real-World Impact
The HITLAB Fall Innovators Summit 2026 brings together leaders from healthcare, technology, research, investment, government, and entrepreneurship to explore the innovations transforming how healthcare is developed, delivered, and experienced.
Taking place December 1–3 in New York City, the Summit goes beyond conversations about what could change healthcare to examine what is working — and what it takes to bring promising innovation into the real world.
Across three days of keynotes, panels, fireside chats, demonstrations, and focused discussions, leaders from across the healthcare ecosystem will examine the technologies, evidence, partnerships, and strategies defining healthcare’s next chapter.
This is where innovation meets evidence — and where ideas become impact.

Why HITLAB
Innovation Needs More Than a Great Idea.
Healthcare is filled with promising technologies. The challenge is determining which innovations work, for whom, under what conditions — and how they can successfully scale.
For more than two decades, HITLAB has operated at the intersection of healthcare, technology, research, and evidence, bringing together innovators and healthcare leaders to evaluate emerging technologies and accelerate meaningful change.
The HITLAB Innovators Summit extends that mission by creating a forum where evidence, experience, technology, and collaboration come together.
The Future of Healthcare Isn't Something We Wait For.
It’s something we build. Join us in New York City this December.
