Medical Alley

2025 Summit

Transforming Healthcare Together 

February 6, 2025  |  7:00 AM - 3:00 PM

The Four Seasons Hotel Minneapolis

INNOVATE • ELEVATE • TRANSFORM •

At our annual Summit, we convene thought leaders, community partners, and innovators to fast-track ideas that shift the paradigm and transform health.

Healthcare transformation represents a significant evolution in how care is delivered and how costs are managed. It focuses on improving outcomes, enhancing patient experiences, and reducing costs by adopting innovative solutions.

The 2025 Summit will feature keynote speaker Chad Foster, a pioneering executive who, despite losing his eyesight as a young adult, became the first to develop CRM software for the visually impaired and has driven billion-dollar growth strategies. Chad’s story of how he transformed his own life will prompt us, as leaders, to reflect on our readiness for change and transformation. The Summit will address driving forces for change in our ecosystem, the impact of AI, how to optimize the workforce, and more. It will be a day of reflection, inspiration, and growth as we work together to activate and amplify healthcare transformation.

As Medical Alley partners lead transformative efforts, don’t miss your chance to be part of these game-changing conversations on February 6, 2025 at the Four Seasons Hotel Minneapolis!
