Health 2.0 Conference: What You’re Actually Signing Up For

If you searched “Health 2.0 Conference” hoping to find the famous health-tech gathering that Matthew Holt and Indu Subaiya started in 2007, read this before you buy a ticket. That original event’s conference business was acquired by HIMSS in 2017, and Indu and Matthew remained as hosts of those events under the HIMSS umbrella afterward. The event currently running under the health2conf.com banner in Singapore, Dubai, and Las Vegas is a separate, newer commercial conference series that happens to share the name. It’s part of a family of similarly branded events (Education 2.0, CXO 2.0, and others) run by the same organizer group. Neither is inherently better or worse, but they are not the same event, and confusing the two will send you to the wrong agenda.

This guide covers the currently active health2conf.com series: where and when it’s running next, what its AI-related sessions actually cover, and what it costs to attend. If you’re mainly hunting for US-based AI-in-healthcare events more broadly, our roundup of AI in healthcare conferences in the USA covers a wider set of options including HLTH, Ai4, and RSNA.

Health 2.0 Conference Dates and Venues Through 2027

The series runs three regional editions on a rotating calendar. The US edition already had its 2026 run in the spring, so the closest upcoming stop for most readers is Singapore in December, with Dubai and a return to Las Vegas following in 2027.

Edition	Dates	Venue	Status as of August 2026
Las Vegas (USA) 2026	April 7–9, 2026	Bellagio Hotel & Casino	Already held
Singapore	December 2–4, 2026	Marina Bay Sands	Next confirmed edition
Dubai	March 29–31, 2027	InterContinental Dubai Festival City	Upcoming
Las Vegas (USA) 2027	April 27–29, 2027	Bellagio Hotel & Casino	Upcoming

Those dates come directly from the event organizer’s own site, which lists Marina Bay Sands, Singapore for December 2-4, 2026, followed by Dubai in March 2027 and Las Vegas in April 2027. The April 2026 Las Vegas edition, which is what most search results and older listicles still describe as “upcoming,” has already taken place, so don’t book travel around those dates.

The Las Vegas venue is worth a note for anyone weighing logistics: the Bellagio offers over 200,000 square feet of meeting and conference space, including 52 meeting rooms, and sits close to Harry Reid International Airport. The organizer’s site also advertises a delegate hotel rate starting from $259 per night, excluding taxes, for attendees booking through the official link. If you’re comparing Gulf-region options, our guide to WHX Dubai (Arab Health) dates and AI exhibitors covers the larger, longer-running Dubai health tech event that runs separately from this one.

Inside the Health 2.0 Conference AI Track: What the Sessions Actually Cover

There isn’t a single, separately branded “AI track” with its own ticket or stage. Instead, AI content runs through the general program alongside patient safety, hospital management, and digital health sessions. The organizer describes the event as covering tracks such as AI in healthcare, patient safety, hospital management, personalized medicine, drug development, and digital health technologies.

Singapore 2026: “The Heart of Healing in a High-Tech World”

The published Singapore agenda frames its AI content around a specific tension: how much automation a health system can absorb before it loses the human parts of care. Sessions are described as running from AI-driven affordability solutions and community-based wellness programs to discussions on mental health, ethics in AI, and the evolution of smart hospitals. That framing puts this closer to a strategy and policy conversation than a hands-on technical track, so attendees expecting deep-dive model architecture sessions will likely be disappointed; attendees looking for governance and adoption framing may find it more useful.

Las Vegas 2026 Recap: Trust and Tech Integration

The most recent US edition ran under the theme “The Great Healthcare Shake-Up: Technology, Trust & The Road Ahead,” with sessions built around tech integration, data security, and patient trust.

The event’s own speaker page lists an extensive keynote and featured-speaker lineup running well past 100 names, spanning both digital-health and clinical-tech leaders (executives from health systems like Freeman Health System, and companies like CVS Health) alongside a notable wellness- and alternative-medicine-focused contingent — worth knowing upfront if your interest is specifically clinical AI deployment rather than the broader wellness-industry conversation. That mixed, boutique-scale format is a real contrast to megaconferences like HLTH or HIMSS’s own flagship event, which skew far more heavily toward enterprise health IT and clinical AI specifically.

If your organization needs case studies from vendors with deep AI documentation footprints, that smaller scale is worth weighing against the larger events covered in our AI healthcare conferences USA guide.

Who Actually Gets Value From the Health 2.0 Conference AI Sessions

Given the themes above, this event tends to suit a specific slice of the healthcare AI audience better than others:

• Hospital and health system leaders weighing governance and trust questions around AI deployment, rather than looking for procurement-ready technical comparisons.
• Digital health startups and investors seeking pitch and networking opportunities in a smaller room than HLTH or JPMorgan’s healthcare conference.
• Policy and ethics-focused attendees interested in sessions framed around AI ethics and affordability rather than clinical deployment specifics.

Clinicians looking specifically for diagnostic AI validation data or scribe workflow comparisons may get more direct value from resources like our breakdowns of what AI in healthcare diagnosis can and can’t do yet or how AI medical scribes actually work, since conference agendas at this scale rarely go deep on model-level performance data.

Registration, Cost and Practical Notes for the Health 2.0 Conference

Event listing pages for the 2026 Las Vegas edition put the standard registration cost at $3,000, with a separate, discounted student pass program for undergraduate, graduate, and research-scholar attendees. Pricing for the Singapore and Dubai editions has not been published with the same specificity at the time of writing, so budget conservatively and confirm current rates on the official registration page before committing travel dollars. As with most boutique-scale conferences, early registration tends to carry the better rate, and hotel rooms at flagship venues like the Bellagio and Marina Bay Sands can sell out well before the event given the destinations’ general tourist demand.

One honest caveat worth flagging for a “risks” mindset: because this brand is not the HIMSS-affiliated Health 2.0, due diligence matters more than usual. Cross-check speaker lists, verify the organizer’s CME accreditation claims directly with the awarding body if that matters for your credentialing needs, and treat marketing language about attendee counts and exhibitor numbers as promotional rather than audited. That same skepticism is worth applying broadly to AI vendor claims made at any conference, a theme we cover in more depth in our piece on the real risks of AI in healthcare.

FAQ

Is the Health 2.0 Conference the same event that HIMSS acquired?

No. The original Health 2.0 conference was founded in 2007 by Indu Subaiya and Matthew Holt, and its conference business was acquired by HIMSS in 2017. The event currently running in Singapore, Dubai, and Las Vegas under health2conf.com is a separate, unaffiliated series using the same name.

When is the next Health 2.0 Conference?

The nearest confirmed edition is in Singapore at Marina Bay Sands, December 2 to 4, 2026. The most recent Las Vegas edition already ran in April 2026, and the next US edition is scheduled for April 27 to 29, 2027.

Does the Health 2.0 Conference have a dedicated AI track?

Not a separately ticketed one. AI content runs through the general agenda alongside patient safety, hospital management, and digital health tracks, with the Singapore 2026 edition specifically flagging ethics in AI and AI-driven affordability solutions as session topics.

How much does it cost to attend?

Listings for the 2026 Las Vegas edition put standard registration around $3,000, and the organizer’s own site lists a Bellagio delegate rate starting from $259 per night, excluding taxes. Confirm current pricing directly on the official registration page since rates can shift by edition.

What kind of speakers and attendees should I expect at the Health 2.0 Conference?

The event’s speaker roster mixes genuine digital-health and clinical-tech leaders (executives from health systems and companies like CVS Health) with a significant wellness, integrative-medicine, and alternative-health practitioner contingent. If you’re specifically looking for clinical AI validation data or enterprise health IT deployment case studies, review the published agenda closely — the event covers broader “healthcare innovation” territory rather than a narrow clinical-AI focus.
