Our 2027 agenda will bring together senior digital health executives and health information technology leaders from across the public and private sectors. It will feature bold ideas, transformative strategies, and dynamic formats, from panels and case studies to keynote presentations, point-counterpoint debates, and major industry announcements.
We accept applications on a rolling basis so we recommend that you apply early. Your chances of being selected will decrease as the deadline approaches.
We will respond to every application by mid-February. Please limit any questions regarding the status of your application until after that date. Great things take time to create! Please do not wait for us to reach out to register for the event.
We take confirmations seriously. If a confirmed speaker cancels at the last minute, we unfortunately will not be able to work with that individual for future events. We do understand emergencies happen, and we will evaluate on a case-by-case basis.
ViVE is not pay-to-play and does not pay honorariums to speakers or accept sponsorship dollars for a main agenda speaking role. If you are interested in sponsoring ViVE, please reach out to sponsors@vivevent.com.
ViVE does not cover travel & accommodations for speakers.
ViVE will ONLY provide complimentary registration for speakers coming from providers (hospital system executives & clinicians), payers, employers, government officials, biopharma manufacturers, and media. ALL vendor speakers will have to cover their own registration fee for the event at a discounted rate special to speakers. Vendor speakers are professionals representing companies that offer products, services, or technology solutions to the healthcare industry, including health IT, digital health, SaaS, consulting, medical devices, staffing, PR and marketing agencies, law firms, and other commercial entities. Also defined as anyone attending primarily for business development, sales, or partnership purposes.
Please keep in mind that we receive well over 2,000 applications and accept only 5-10%. Our decisions are not personal. We appreciate all of the time each and every one of you put into your application. We’re doing our best to curate the most impactful program possible, so your patience and understanding of our process is appreciated.
Our ViVE agenda covers a wide breadth of topics, as highlighted in our agenda themes, but healthcare is big and complex, as you know. We will never be able to cover everything for everyone. We love your passion for specific topics, but please understand that our event is only 4 days long with a limited number of sessions so we have to make some tough calls on what topics get covered each year.
3-4 speakers, 40 minutes
These sessions are conversational with no slides. ViVE builds diverse panels internally – if you are picky on who you’ll share the stage with, kindly consider another format. We are intentional with these discussions to get to the evidence and support your points quickly rather than broadly speaking about ideals. We are leaving the theoretical “what ifs” behind and discussing how to solve hard problems. If you have high guardrails on what topics we can cover- it may not be the format for you.
1 speaker, 20 minutes
Think BIG IDEAS of how to transform health, think TEDTalk meets the Presidential Address. Here we are looking for visionaries who are fed up with the current health system status quo and have novel ideas to change it. We want speakers with gravitas! This stage is not for product pitches, but again big missions — a mission that is WAY bigger than one organization or one solution.
1-2 speakers, 1 moderator, 20 minutes
These one-on-one discussions between a moderator and speaker hone in on the speakers’ specific experience and view on the proposed topic. This speaker is uniquely positioned to discuss the topic at hand given their current role and have real evidence to support their message. This will need to be a brand new message for our audience, not rehashed. Use our stage as the catalyst to cement your influence over our health industry.
1-2 speakers, 20 minutes
With so much happening inside of each health organization, from new partnerships to new technology integrations to new care model implementation, we want a peek inside the magic! These sessions will give an insider view of a specific project our featured speakers are currently in the weeds of implementing or have successfully (or sometimes not so successfully) come out the other side with stories to tell. These should be very practical and not shy away from the gory details!
1 moderator for panelist and point-counterpoint discussions
Moderators play a CRUCIAL role in the success of the session. Think of them as the ‘Team Captains’ that the ‘Players’ look to to lead them. We prefer to keep these conversational with no slides. Panels take questions from the moderator and live audience questions (digitally). We typically choose moderators from the media, consulting firms, law firms, VCs, bankers, academia i.e. people that are neutral parties with SME on the topics covered. We hope to find moderators who are polite and considerate of our speakers, but NOT afraid to push or ask the tough questions.
All speakers must explicitly consent to their inclusion in all content submissions prior to applying. Please do not try and convince speakers to participate after they have already been submitted in an application.

We accept applications on a rolling basis so we recommend that you apply early. Your chances of being selected will decrease as the deadline approaches. If ViVE is interested in moving forward with your application a member of the Content Team will reach out to schedule a call. We will require direct contact with the proposed speaker before final confirmation.
We are not able to provide a detailed response to all who apply due to the extremely large number of applications received. We will reach out if there is a good fit on the program on a rolling basis from when applications open. All invited speakers will be notified by mid-January, and if you were not selected, you will be notified on this date as well. Please do not wait for us to reach out to register for the event. We will refund or transfer your ticket to a colleague if selected as a speaker.
Limit to 1 submission per Executive. Multiple submissions will not be reviewed. Limit to 4 executives from 1 organization. We will not review any more than 4. At the end of the day, we book speakers, not companies.
We take confirmations seriously. If a confirmed speaker cancels at the last minute, we unfortunately will not be able to work with that individual for future events. We do understand emergencies happen and we will evaluate on a case by case basis. ViVE reserves the right to cancel the speaking slot entirely if the proposed speaker can no longer uphold their commitment.
The Content Team must approve any speaker changes before a speaker invitation is extended to the potential replacement. Any speakers that are not approved by the Content Team are subject to cancellation by ViVE.
ViVE reserves the right to cancel a session if the speaker is not able to deliver the original concept and speaker(s) listed in the proposal and/or misses key deadlines.
