A Diamond of the (Conference) Season: Anticipations of Topics, Trends, and Innovations at Fall/Winter Conferences – #HITsm Chat Topic

We’re excited to share the topic and questions for this month’s #HITsm chat happening Friday, 11/4 at Noon ET (9 AM PT).  This month’s chat will be hosted by Erica Olenski Johansen (@thegr8chalupa) on the topic A Diamond of the (Conference) Season: Anticipations of Topics, Trends, and Innovations at Fall/Winter Conferences

“Winds in the east mist coming in. Like somethin’ is brewin’ and bout to begin. Can’t put me finger on what lies in store…” – Bert in Mary Poppins

There is an extraordinary energy in the air. 

While fall leaves are turning brilliant colors and smells of pumpkin spice and peppermint are wafting throughout our homes and office spaces, there is an unfamiliar occurrence energizing the holiday season. Voices aren’t quite caroling yet, but they ARE buzzing about an unprecedented fall conference schedule throughout the healthcare innovation communities – defying many of the historic patterns of conversation in more recent years.

As the fall conference season graces us with its presence, we’re curious to learn and hear what the community is anticipating at large. Will this conference season motivate a new schedule for product roadmaps, inspire new marcomm storytelling, and re-energize 2023 budgeting decisions? Or will it be a bust – leaving attendees, both in person and virtual – wishing for something more?

Channeling my inner Lady Wistledown (shoutout to all my Bridgerton fans), will an infamous “Diamond of the Season” topic or innovation inspire the hearts and minds of healthcare innovation leaders? Or will the lifecycle of healthcare innovation continue to rely on the optimism of the spring (and a new year) to propel its innovative spirit?

Either way, I will be sipping my hot chai tea with anticipation.

Join us for this week’s #HITsm chat where we’ll be discussing the following topics.

Topics for this week’s #HITsm Chat:

T1: What predictions do you have for the 2022 fall/winter conference season? Will it prove to be a revolutionary shift in conversation or merely an addition to other, legacy patterns of discussion? #HITsm

T2: What advice do you have for folks attending the fall/winter conferences – in person or virtually? #HITsm

T3: What topics/themes do you expect to be the “Diamond of the Season?” Is there a topic you expect to be too hyped? What may not be hyped up enough? #HITsm

T4: Which healthcare innovation voices are a must-hear? Will they be presenting at any conferences this fall/winter? If so, which ones? Share the conference hashtag as well for virtual folks to follow along. #HITsm

T5: What is one conference on your wish list to attend and/or present at? Why? #HITsm

Bonus: What is the best and most memorable conference after-party event you have attended? When and where was it? Who made it special? #HITsm
