Scientific Sessions 2026 Health Innovation Programming 

Where AI, Digital Health and Cardiovascular Innovation Collide 

November 7–10 | Chicago, Illinois | McCormick Place Convention Center 

The Health Innovation Pavilion (HIP) is back — bigger, bolder and built for the future of healthcare. Located in the center of the Science & Technology Hall, HIP is where clinicians, founders, investors, health systems, technology and innovation leaders come together to explore what’s transforming heart and brain health right now. 

Hosted by the Center for Health Technology & Innovation, this year’s programming features live conversations and demos on AI, digital care, connected health, patient engagement and the technologies reshaping healthcare delivery. 

The pavilion will also host the flagship Health Tech Competition, where 5 finalists will pitch their solutions to a distinguished panel of judges. 

Catch last year’s highlights from the energy, ideas, and breakthroughs happening inside HIP.
