On this episode we recap the 36th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare conference (#JPM18), the Health 2.0 WinterTech event and talk about the "festival" that J.P. Morgan Week becomes in San Francisco. We cover the trends and topics coming out of the festival and use them as a jumping off point to discuss the next wave of digital health investment and innovation.
What you'll learn:
Held January 8-11, 2018 - San Francisco
This is the premier gathering of healthcare investors in the U.S. This year more than 400 companies from startups to very large healthcare delivery systems presented to more than 8,000 attendees to share their vision and strategies for the coming years. The idea is to telegraph to investors what's coming (if you're an innovator), and what you'll want to buy (if you're a large health system). One observer said it "provides an incredibly efficient snapshot of the strategies for large healthcare delivery systems".
The event is invite-only, but there are plenty of opportunities to get involved in the various events and meetups happening around town. A prime example of that is the Health 2.0 WinterTech event.

Held January 10, 2018
A much smaller and more targeted event that is billed as "the place for insider insights on investing trends in health care technology". Less than a year after being acquired by HIMSS, it's great to hear that this event is still, as Shahid put it, "very much a Matthew (Holt) and Indu (Subaiya) Health 2.0 event". That means startups get the spotlight. Matthew and Indu love to put them on stage and let them tell the investors what they're up to.
