Health Connect South – September 15 Inaugural Event

healthsouthconnectDay Long Regional Conference in Atlanta

Health Connect South exists as a gathering point where the most progressive aspects of health advancement in the Southeast are shared, explored and created. It was created to build a first-of-its-kind sustainable platform for regional health collaborations. Though Georgia is home to world-class health assets, there is surprisingly little interdisciplinary clarity around areas of focus, impact, needs and capacity within and among our health assets. Heightened clarity can accelerate new opportunities for geographically advantaged collaborations, unlocking and advancing important advances in health.

There mission is to serve the health community as a sustainable platform for regional health collaborations. Through the collective work, they will seek to broadly define and advance the Southeast’s role in the future of health. Serving as a gateway between health industry silos, they seek to provide unique and meaningful partnership opportunities in health.
To advance their mission they will bring together top-tier health leaders and innovators across disciplines to engage each other in collaborative conversations focused on meeting identified health needs through leveraging supporting ideas and institutions.

Join Health Connect South this Monday in Atlanta for their first event of this first large-scale gathering to “officially” launch Health Connect South at The Woodruff Arts Center. Participants and attendees will include Georgia’s leading health decision makers, innovators and top-tier students.
