    The AI in Healthcare Forum brings together healthcare leaders, innovators, clinicians, researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, and technology experts to explore how AI is transforming healthcare — and what comes next.

    This year, we’re looking beyond the technology itself to ask bigger questions:

    How do we move from AI innovation to meaningful adoption? How do we build trust? And how can Minnesota help shape the future of responsible AI in healthcare?

    The Forum is taking shape — and there are a lot of ways to be part of it.

    ## Choose Your Way to Get Involved

    Whether you want to present, demonstrate, showcase your startup, volunteer, sponsor, or simply attend, there’s a place for you.

    ### Present — Breakout Speakers

    Share your expertise in one of six healthcare AI tracks:

    • AI in Clinical Care
    • AI in Medical Devices & Digital Health
    • AI in Insurance & Value-Based Care
    • AI & Rural Health
    • Women’s Health
    • Epic, Data Governance & Mental Health

    You can apply as an individual presenter or as a panel.
    Each breakout session is 45 minutes — 30 minutes of presentation/discussion followed by 15 minutes of Q&A.
    Applications close October 5.
    👉 Apply to Present

    ### Demo — Lightning Round AI Demo Theater

    Have an AI solution you want to put in front of a healthcare audience?
    The Lightning Round AI Demo Theater gives innovators 10 minutes to demonstrate their technology, idea, or solution.
    Six finalists will be selected to take the stage during the Forum.
    Applications close October 5.

    There are no restrictions based on geography, growth stage, or market segment.
    If you can attend the Forum in person, you can be considered for the live showcase.
