Every day we build and implement new technology in the NHS, however many encounters of care involve clinicians using out-dated, unsupported technology to support care. How risky is legacy technology, and how can the NHS learn from other sectors to escape the quagmire of chaos that is left behind?

Architecture to support the future of AI and Automation in the NHS

In the realm of healthcare, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already reshaping the NHS by revolutionizing diagnostics and expediting treatment. Through its remarkable ability to detect subtle patterns in medical data, AI tools are facilitating early disease detection, ensuring quicker interventions and improved patient outcomes. Particularly evident in medical imaging, AI swiftly identifies anomalies, allowing healthcare providers to initiate precise treatment plans. Moreover, AI-driven predictive models aid in tailoring treatments and resource allocation, optimizing patient care. While challenges in data ethics and human-AI collaboration persist, the NHS is embracing this transformative technology responsibly, propelling healthcare into a future of enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and patient well-being.

Convenzis Healthcare Event testimonials

What our clients say about us

Working with Convenzis is a stress-free and a rewarding experience, with fantastic engagement from a highly targeted and relevant audience

Zoom

I worked with Convenzis, primarily Dan, for the first time this year, putting together a bespoke online event for IBM. He has always been so responsive and accommodating. The team always remained professional and helpful – despite the many demands from our side! They were very keen for us to maximise on the investment and revisit those attendees who had not committed to follow ups.
It was an absolute pleasure doing business with Convenzis and I know there will be more opportunities next year. Looking forward to it!

IBM

In view of the recent NHS Oncology Conference organised by CONVENZIS which was sponsored by Pascoe Healthcare Ltd, CONVENZIS exhibited professionalism through credible organisation, invitation of delegates/respectable Speakers and general conduct of the entire conference. This has also shown that CONVENZIS is a great partner in business which is fundamental to ROI of partnering Companies even in the wake of the pandemic.

Pascoe Healthcare

“We’ve worked with the Convenzis team for several years and their events are a regular occurrence for us. Not only is the content always extremely topical, but the speakers are always excellent and the support from the team ahead of and during the events is exceptional. The team are incredibly receptive to feedback and always goes above and beyond – a real pleasure to work with!”

eConsult

“It has been a pleasure to work with Matt and Dan for the past few events. Everything has always run smoothly and we’ve always managed to gather a large number of interested parties due to the events they have hosted.

They are also very helpful and timely in their responses, which has made working with them very easy “
