2023 Health Care of the Future

Each year, the Puget Sound Business Journal invites a talented and high-level group of health care leaders to share their view of the trends, opportunities and challenges this vital industry is facing. Their insights bring an important perspective and clarity to issues that are literally life and death. The speakers will discuss the most pressing issues of the time, which can include equity and access to care, personalized medicine and how technology is changing the way patients access and receive care, vaccine research, mental health, and more.

This year, through two panel discussions, we will focus on the future of mental health and the role we see technology playing in health care.
