ViVE 2027 Nashville

ViVE is a digital health conference run jointly by HLTH and CHIME, aimed at the people who buy, build and secure technology inside US hospitals, health systems and insurers. The 2027 edition takes place from 14 to 17 March 2027 at Music City Center in Nashville, Tennessee. The show floor is open Monday and Tuesday from 8:00 to 17:45 and on Wednesday until midday. The organiser cites 7,000+ executives across the health ecosystem for 2027, naming CIOs, CTOs and CMIOs of provider and payer organisations, plus investors, founders, informaticists, health IT security and policy staff. The 2026 edition's speakers included the US National Coordinator for Health IT and executives from Anthropic, Perplexity AI and UnitedHealth Group; the 2027 line-up has not been published. Main sessions run on show-floor stages from Monday 9:00 to 17:00, with themed zones for AI, cybersecurity, interoperability (InteropNow!) and a Nurse Innovators Pavilion. Around them sit the Best in KLAS and Techquity for Health awards, a Health Tech Showcase and a startup pitch competition. Two matchmaking programmes carry the commercial side. Provider & Payer Connect is a hosted-buyer scheme: senior decision-makers at health systems, payers and government bodies apply for a free pass that includes eight curated, double opt-in 15-minute meetings with solution providers. Investor Connect pairs investors with growth-stage startups. Sunday holds registration, Insights programmes and two welcome receptions; Third Eye Blind plays Industry Night on Tuesday 16 March. Registration is open, priced by attendee type. Government staff with a .gov or .mil address pay $995, clinicians, non-profits and qualifying startups $1,395, provider, payer and pharma executives and investors $1,495, and solution providers or anyone attending for business development $2,095. The Connect pass is free on an approved application (listed value $2,395), and accredited journalists can apply for a free media pass. Each tier also lists a higher standard rate with no published deadline. All-access passes cover on-demand session video, daily meals, nightly receptions and exhibit floor access. For affiliates and media buyers the fit is indirect. ViVE is a procurement and partnership show for enterprise health IT, not a performance marketing event, and there is no affiliate or advertiser track. It suits teams selling patient-acquisition, telehealth or health lead-generation services to providers and payers, and publishers moving into healthtech who want to meet the vendors they will cover. For anyone else the vendor-rate pass buys little.
