London Health and Social Care Industry Dinner 2026

techUK's flagship health and social care dinner: informal networking, dinner and keynote speeches, 18:30 to 23:00 in central London. Business attire.

Two confirmed keynotes carry it. Dr Penny Dash, Chair of NHS England, and Rob Thomson, Chief Digital Information Officer at the Department of Health and Social Care. The room is health-tech businesses wanting visibility with NHS and departmental stakeholders, plus members of techUK's Health and Social Care Programme. Sponsored by Cognizant.

Paid, and not cheap: individual member GBP 320 plus VAT, SME member GBP 260, non-member GBP 620, tables of ten from GBP 1,720. The exact central London venue comes with registration.

Why go: the chair of NHS England and the DHSC's CDIO at the same dinner is as close as health tech gets to hearing the buying side say what it wants. Best for commercial leads at health-tech companies, and worth it for the table conversations rather than the speeches.
