Patient Village

The Patient Village is a dedicated space within the exhibition designed to put patient voices at the heart of healthcare innovation. This immersive experience invites patients, advocates, healthcare professionals, regulators, industry leaders, and policy-makers to connect, listen, and collaborate on real-world challenges.

The village provides the opportunity for healthcare experiences to be shared, challenges to be addressed and solutions co-created.

Listening Lounges – join patients and their advocates as they provide valuable insights into healthcare experiences and their hopes for the future.


Patient Hack – take part in our interactive, fast paced problem-solving workshop designed to tackle real-world patient challenges on site. Apply to take part, places are limited.
