About the event
Unlocking data, analytics, machine learning, and generative AI to accelerate healthcare & life sciences innovation

Healthcare and Life Sciences organizations are at a turning point in how they use data science, analytics, machine learning (ML), and generative artificial intelligence (AI) to accelerate the development and distribution of lifesaving treatments, improve the time to and quality of diagnoses, and advance the transition to personalized health and precision medicine. But, harnessing the power of data and AI/ML requires executive leadership engagement and an end-to-end data strategy.

Join us for this exclusive executive event to learn how industry leaders are reinventing their business with data, and unlocking patient-centric innovations with AI/ML in the cloud. Explore how they are using AWS’ comprehensive set of data capabilities to build scalable platforms that surface data-driven insights for their immediate challenges, while creating an innovation hub to plan for future needs.

The event will feature keynotes, panel discussions, lightning talks, and product discussions across:

  • Applying AI/ML and generative AI to drug discovery & development, clinical decision support, and more
  • Unlocking access to and insights from first-party, third-party, and multi-modal data
  • Tools to democratize access to AI/ML and analytics
