Main Room20 minsArtificial intelligence in healthcare is entering a new phase. Following rapid growth in AI pilots and vendor proliferation, NHS leaders now face a strategic challenge: how to industrialise AI safely, sustainably and at scale. This session explores the shift from experimentation to infrastructure, the rise of agentic AI, and why governance, data maturity and financial resilience matter more than ever. Drawing on real world NHS impact across clinical documentation, coding automation and patient safety, it examines how AI can restore workforce capacity, protect income integrity and strengthen clinical oversight in a consolidating market.

Main Room20 minsAmbient Voice Technology (AVT) has become one of the fastest-growing technology categories in the NHS. But while much of the conversation has focused on time savings, are we aiming too low?
Drawing on lessons from the largest Enterprise-scale NHS deployments, Elliott Engers (General Manager, Accurx) and Aimee Wilde (Partnerships, Accurx) will explore how AVT could become the catalyst for a more connected, asynchronous and patient-centred model of care. Attendees will hear practical implementation insights, common pitfalls to avoid, and a provocative perspective on what comes next for AVT in the NHS.

Main Room20 minsWhat Norway’s approach can teach us about system-wide coordination
Across the NHS, patient flow isn’t failing because hospitals aren’t working hard enough. It’s struggling because demand and care pathways now operate system-wide, while operational flow is still often managed locally using fragmented processes and disconnected systems.
Leading healthcare systems such as Norway have taken a different approach. They do not treat patient flow purely as a hospital challenge, but as a real-time coordination challenge spanning the entire care pathway.
This session explores how DNV Imatis has helped operationalise that approach at scale — connecting people, workflows and operational data to improve coordination, unlock capacity and support safer, more efficient care delivery. -
Breakout Room 120 minsHospitals lose thousands of staff hours each year to a challenge nobody plans for: helping people find their way. With workforce pressures mounting and patient expectations rising, digital wayfinding has become a critical operational lever, yet its full impact is rarely understood. In this session, you will learn why wayfinding is one of the most underestimated operational tools in a modern NHS hospital, which metrics reveal its impact, what implementation looks like in practice, and how connected digital hospital experiences are already improving journeys for patients, visitors, and staff across Europe.

Breakout Room 220 minsIn this session shows how trusts are strengthening workforce oversight and delivering impact with Agentic Process Automation.
Karen Ceesay, Deputy Chief People Officer at the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, is presenting their flagship transformation programme and shares tangible benefits of AI-driven automation. The People Services transformation has the ambition to deliver £1M in annual temporary staffing savings and release up to 8k hours yearly. The Medical Workforce optimisation programme is targeting £4.7M in annual bank and agency savings while providing oversight of medical shift requests through integrated workflow systems.

Main Room20 minsADHD360, part of the wider Keys Group, advocates a whole system approach to neurodevelopmental care. ADHD provision done well is preventative and its impact spans health, social care and the wider economy. There has been a great deal of noise around ADHD provision lately, with growing public, political and clinical scrutiny of ADHD and neurodevelopmental services. Here we outline what evidence-based, gold-standard ADHD care looks like in practice - and the benefits for patients. We discuss the opportunity for independent providers to work in partnership with the NHS, collaborating on the development of a national framework for ADHD care.

Breakout Room 120 minsSurrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust is modernising its communications environment to support delivery of the NHS 10 Year Plan. This session explores how the Trust is replacing fragmented telephony, contact centre and bleep systems with a unified communications platform integrated with Oracle Health and NHS.net Connect.
The programme is designed to improve patient access, support virtual care pathways and strengthen clinical coordination across the organisation. Attendees will learn how modern communications platforms can support the shift from hospital to community care, analogue to digital services and sickness to prevention while improving operational efficiency, resilience and patient experience -
Breakout Room 220 minsWith limited non-clinical headcount, aggressive targets, and the continued pressure to do more with less, improving patient outcomes and increasing operational efficiency depends on automating administrative tasks.
This hands-on session will share tips on how the University Hospital Leicester NHS Trust has approached this challenge, including examples from staff doing innovative work with AI today. Rachael will also share insight and use cases drawn from more than 100 other Trusts that have partnered with Multiverse to address this challenge

Main Room20 minsManaging the hospital-to-home pathway relies on processes that are often manual, fragmented, and difficult to monitor. Vyne is a digital-first service built to address this – connecting acute and community teams, standardising medical device prescribing, and giving clinicians complete visibility of patients and devices. This session will explore how Vyne works in practice: how it achieves clinically safe digital discharge, how it integrates into existing workflows and systems, how it saves clinical time and prescription costs, and how it provides the data NHS organisations need to evidence compliance and outcomes.

Breakout Room 120 minsThe path to AI innovation in healthcare is often blocked by critical infrastructure challenges. Clinical data silos, interoperability gaps, and compliance often stall innovation.
In this session, BMC and Computacenter will demonstrate how Control-M serves as the core orchestration engine across your digital estate, connecting disparate healthcare systems, ensuring robust data governance, and delivering simplified data pipelines. Designed for leaders navigating digital transformation, it helps de-risk change and protect continuity of care. Turn your integration struggles into a competitive advantage, deliver the trusted data your organization demands and see how controlling data flow unlocks true operational resilience. -
Breakout Room 220 minsThe NHS is hitting a documentation tipping point. Workforce pressure, rising demand and admin burden are colliding on the frontline, and Ambient AI is a genuine response, not tech chasing a problem. But the clinical risks are as big as the opportunity. In this session, Lyrebird Health's Founder & CEO Kai Van Lieshout and Dr Saif Ahmed, CMIO at Tameside and Glossop, dig into what it takes to deploy AI safely in the NHS - from clinical safety to independent evaluation and keeping clinicians in the loop. Drawing on 1M+ consultations and peer-reviewed research, they explore how we build AI clinicians can trust.

Main Room20 minsAs AI scribes gain traction across the NHS, note generation is becoming standard. However, most solutions stop at documentation, leaving clinicians to complete the administrative work that follows, including letters, referrals, and coding. As a result, significant time is still spent on non-patient tasks, and operational inefficiencies persist.
This talk introduces a different perspective: the note is not the finish line; it is the starting point. Real transformation comes from completing the entire clinical workflow, not just capturing the consultation.
Using real NHS examples, the session explores how ambient voice technology can reduce administrative burden, accelerate care pathways, and improve patient outcomes -
Breakout Room 120 minsThis session explores the next evolution of the centrally funded NHS Secure Boundary programme. Delivered in partnership with Palo Alto Networks and IBM, this AI-enabled cloud security solution protects NHS organisations in England under a united "Defend as One" strategy.
We will discuss how the new service grants local Trusts the autonomy to tailor security policies via an extensible platform while directly benefiting from centralized national threat intelligence. Join us to discover how Secure Boundary reduces system complexity, cuts costly local spending, and securely enables the vital digital shifts outlined in the 10-Year Health Plan.
