Forum on Health Care Innovation - Alumni

APR15-16

15-16 APR 2015
HBS Campus

"Some of the greatest health care innovations have taken decades to reach widespread adoption, yet the iPhone had more than 500 million users in 7 years. There is no good reason why we can't accelerate the pace of innovation in health care to improve care and reduce costs."
Barbara J. McNeil, MD

Harvard Business School and Harvard Medical School's Forum on Health Care Innovation invites you to an exclusive opportunity to debate what's next in health care.

This invitation-only event convenes global experts, Harvard faculty, and influential alumni from all sectors of the industry.

Building momentum for change—across sectors—is the goal. Participants are key contributors, not passive attendees. Come share your ideas on how to move health care forward, more quickly.

Registration is closed for this event. Please contact Aimee LeBrun at alebrun@hbs.edu or 617.496.0225 to add your name to the waiting list.
