Speech recognition specialists Nuance Communications has been named as a sponsor for Digital Health Rewired.

Nuance has joined as speaker sponsors of the Cloud and Mobile track of Digital Health Rewired.

Dr Paul Altmann, CCIO at Oxford University Hospitals, will present on how the GDE trust is using speech recognition technologies.

The new Rewired two-day conference and one-day exhibition is taking place on 25-26 March, Day one at Novotel Olympia and day two at London Olympia, and will connect health IT leaders and professionals with the latest disruptive digital health innovations.

Developed for everyone working across NHS IT and the wider digital health sector, Digital Health Rewired will provide attendees with insights and ideas they can take back and implement in their organisation, while growing their professional network.

Frederik Brabant, vice-president of Nuance Healthcare International, said: “We’ve been long term sponsors of the Digital Health Networks because it keeps us close to the news and views of those influencing and orchestrating digital and technological innovation in UK healthcare.

“Over the years since we’ve been sponsors we established and built up some fruitful partnerships with our customers and prospects.

“We’re excited to be involved in Rewired because it will be bringing healthcare buyers and HIT vendors together in a fresh environment of challenge, discovery and conversation.” He added: “Our sponsorship of the mobile and cloud track is another great opportunity to meet face-to-face and broaden and deepen those conversations.”

Brabant added: “Delegates will get a chance to hear, not just from us, but from some of their peers who are successfully using our solutions to reduce the admin burden and costs associated with clinical correspondence and free clinicians from the chore of typing and clicking into the EPR to focus on patient care.”

Jon Hoeksma, CEO of Digital Health, said: “Nuance are a true leader in the application of disruptive voice technologies and AI, which have huge potential across healthcare, including helping to address one of the key challenges of digitisation health organisations: how do you capture and code data at point of care?”

He added: “Nuance have been one of our key long-term sponsors and partners of the CCIO Networks and their commitment to Rewired builds on our very strong relationship.”

Day one of Rewired, 25 March, will begin with the fourth edition of the Digital Health Leadership Summit, now renamed the Rewired Leadership Summit.

The Rewired Leadership Summit will bring together health CCIOs, CIOs, CNIOs and C-suite colleagues to address the leadership challenges of digital transformation. An evening of networking will follow.

Day two, 26 March, will be devoted to the brand new Digital Health Rewired Expo, an integrated conference and exhibition, that will showcase some of the very best local and national work of digital trailblazers in health and care.

The over-arching theme of the Rewired Expo will be joining up and integrating health and care through the transformational use of technology, with a dedicated conference programme plus hands-on practical demos and showcases.

Dedicated zones will also enable delegates to explore latest developments in key disruptive technology trends: AI and Analytics, Cloud and Mobile, Clinical Software and Cyber Security.  Each zone will have a compelling programme delivered in its own show-floor theatre, informed by Digital Health’s News and Intelligence coverage.
