WIRED Health:Tech focuses on the technology driving the future of patient care
WIRED Health:Tech returns to the digital screen as a one-day virtual conference exploring some of the most fascinating innovations and trends in health-related technology.

What is different and/or new for 2021 WIRED Events?
The WIRED team have thought long and hard about the best way to translate our incredibly dynamic and awe-inspiring editorial content into engaging experiences online and in-person. For the rest of 2021, WIRED will make all of its event content available as a virtual experience. Any in-person events will be announced as soon as travel restrictions are eased, but any in-person activities in 2021 will remain intimate and informal.
_Accessible and virtual: We are charging only nominal fees for the most basic access to all of the conference content. This offers our attendees around the world the benefit of cutting all travel and accomodation costs, and allow them the freedom to enjoy the content in the comfort of their home or office.
_Punchy, dynamic content: We know that you're busy, so we have designed the programme to run as punchy 90-minute segments.
_Potential in-person networking: If travel and Covid-19 restrictions are lifted, and it is deemed safe for our attendees, WIRED hopes to explore hosting intimate networking events as part of its virtual conferences. Tickets to these in-person networking events will be charged separately and in addition to any of the online passes.
The All Access Digital Pass ticket price includes an annual subscription to WIRED magazine at the discounted rate of only £19.
