The Digital Health Week NZ 2025 programme will include talks from across the health sector — clinicians, researchers, data scientists, innovators, health service leaders, and beyond. As explorers of digital health, this is their platform to share their work, inspire action, and connect with others who are transforming healthcare.

This year, we're embracing the power of ‘collabor-action’ — where working together drives real impact. Our presenters will lead discussions and share case studies that highlight how partnerships, shared goals, and integrated systems are improving outcomes and driving meaningful change.

We are also celebrating the 25th anniversary of HiNZ at the conference, so don't miss your chance to be a part of this special conference celebration and hear from an amazing group of inspiring and transformative speakers.
