February 28, 2026
Dear Healthcare Professional,
Greetings.
Thank you for the overwhelming response to the GDHS2026. This year, we are setting a new world record! We are incredibly excited to have leaders and healthcare professionals join us this year to assist you in your journey with Implementing Artificial Intelligence - AI in Action. This is our theme for GDHS2026.
Artificial Intelligence has dominated healthcare conversations for years; but very few know how to actually implement it. GDHS 2026 is the world's most influential summit dedicated to moving from ideas to execution, helping clinicians, hospital administrators, pharma leaders, and MedTech CEOs understand where and how to implement AI across the healthcare value chain.
This edition of the Global Digital Health Summit (GDHS) will bring together participants from around the world to share, learn, and plan the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) across various healthcare domains.
I look forward to meeting you and finding ways to help you in implementing AI.

Dear Friend,
Greetings from New York. I had to fly here for the UN General Assembly on the closing day of the GDHS 2025.
I am deeply grateful for your leadership in making GDHS 2025 the summit that shaped India's Digital Health Roadmap. The media has recognized its impact, but what truly stood out was the unprecedented scale and scope.
At GDHS 2025, we launched the Functional AI Pyramid, the Edison–Watson Digital Health Ecosystem, and the Hippocratic Oath for the Digital Age.
The Summit may have concluded, but our mission continues. With the call to RESET and REINVENT, we are writing history together.
27th December, 2024
As we step into 2025, let us celebrate the rapid transformation in healthcare that we have achieved so far. The year 2024 ended on a high note, equipping us with better tools to tackle access, affordability, and quality of care.
2025 will be a defining year—for your practice, profession, and organization. At the Global Digital Health Summit (GDHS), the message was clear: this is the age of creators, not competitors.
Thank you for making GDHS 2024 the largest and most impactful healthcare event in the region.
Let us meet, network, and create the future of healthcare!
