What is HIMSS?

It serves as a key platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and exploring cutting-edge digital health solutions.

HIMSS 2025  is one of the most anticipated events in the healthcare and technology space. While the main conference is packed with insightful sessions, one of the best ways to truly maximize your experience is by attending the various side events happening throughout the week.

Why side events matter?

Side events—such as networking receptions, happy hours, luncheons, and exclusive meetups—offer attendees a chance to connect in a more relaxed setting. Unlike the structured nature of conference sessions, these gatherings create the perfect environment for:

• Building meaningful connections – Meet industry peers, potential partners, and thought leaders in an informal atmosphere. Connect with top healthcare professionals in an informal setting.
• Expanding business opportunities – Discuss potential collaborations and explore new solutions beyond the main exhibition hall.
• Gaining exclusive insights – Many side events feature panel discussions, product demos, and executive roundtables that provide a deeper dive into key topics.
