01 — The through-line

One network, three forms. From the cell, to the synapse, to the world.

Global Health Congress convenes the people redrawing the map of human health — clinicians, researchers, technologists and policy leaders — around a single idea: that the breakthroughs ahead live in the connections between disciplines, not within them. Every session is built to make those connections visible.

500
Seats. One room. No expo hall, no booth to buy. At the Yale Club, you are never more than a conversation away from the person who decides.
Every side
Of the system, at one table. Health-system CEOs, chief AI officers, health plan CEOs, medical school deans, investors and policy advisors — for three days, in the same room.
Capital
In the room, not a side track. Founders pitch live at the Venture Forum while investors judge in the open and hospital buyers watch.
Practitioners
Run the program. Sessions led by the chiefs, CMOs and deans doing the work — not a sponsor's product pitch.
