AI Healthcare Academy

The Digital Leadership Forum aims to help leading organisations innovate, learn and grow in the age of AI.

About the AI Healthcare Leadership Academy

The purpose of the AI Healthcare Academy is to enable leading organisations to capitalise on the opportunities AI can provide in the healthcare and life sciences sector, in areas such as optimising operations, supporting clinical research, accelerating drug discovery, and improving patient outcomes.

This leadership academy will provide practical guidance, through a series of case studies on how to strengthen data quality, governance and interoperability while maintaining a sound approach to policy making, risk management and the regulatory landscape.

The Academy will run online over a period of 2 months so attendees can get a deep-dive into the applications of AI across the healthcare sector.

The dates for the 2024 AI Healthcare Academy will be published soon. Register your interest today to hear when the next series goes live!
