The Future of Health Leadership, Informatics, and Policy (FHLIP) conference is more than just an event. It is a mission-driven gathering dedicated to instigating a paradigm shift in health care. We envision a proactive rather than reactive approach —one where intelligent, interoperable systems use AI to weave disconnected information into a seamless flow that delivers the right insights to the right team at the right time for every patient. We believe that digital health policies are the catalysts to realize this vision.

At the FHLIP conference, our commitment extends beyond discourse. We will actively foster collaboration among various stakeholders, endorse the adoption of trailblazing technologies and scrupulously address issues around privacy, security and ethics. Our comprehensive approach aims to enhance patient outcomes, significantly reduce health care costs, and boost our health care system’s overall efficiency and sustainability.

The FHLIP conference is an initiative designed to lay out the groundwork for a more resilient, patient-centric health care ecosystem. It is a platform to explore best and next practices, identify challenges and question assumptions, and understand the roles of policymakers and vendors. We aim to influence a future where digital health is the norm, not the exception.

FHLIP 2026 will bring together a diverse community of patients, academics, clinicians, policymakers, students, and industry leaders to explore how we can transition from isolated efforts to a truly connected and patient-centred system where data follows the patient.

Three Pillars. One Movement.

  • Innovation: Explore cutting-edge research on AI, interoperability, and personalized medicine. Discover how data becomes impact and how technology can drive patient-centered solutions.
  • Community: Strengthen the bonds between students, researchers, clinicians, policymakers, and entrepreneurs. The strength of our impact lies in the connections we build together.
  • Growth: Expand your leadership capacity, advance your research into real-world implementation, and shape Canada’s more connected, resilient, and sustainable healthcare future.
