NHS ConfedExpo: where health and care leaders connect

In June 2025, leaders from across the NHS and wider health and care came together at Manchester Central to tackle real problems, share what works, and spark practical partnerships. Chief executives, ICS leaders, clinicians and industry partners used the two days to move ideas into action - connecting the right people around the issues that matter most.

Why partner with NHS ConfedExpo?

NHS ConfedExpo brings people together to co-create new solutions that drive improvements across health and care. Our partnerships are designed to help you contribute to that work, meet the right leaders, and show how your solutions make a difference for staff and patients. As your partner, we will:

Work with you to understand what you need to achieve
Identify where you can add value for NHS organisations
Build a programme of activity that connects you with the audiences that matter

New for 2026: A tailored approach

We’ve moved beyond the traditional sponsorship catalogue. Every partnership begins with a short discovery call. We ask:

  • What do you want to achieve?
  • Who do you need to reach?
  • How do you prefer to engage?

Then we build a tailored proposal using flexible building blocks. You can combine the elements that best support your goals, and we will advise on the mix that delivers the best outcome within your budget.

Whether you are introducing technology that improves patient outcomes, establishing thought leadership in health transformation, or building relationships with NHS leaders who can champion your work, we design partnerships that deliver measurable progress.
