NEC Health to sponsor the HETT Leaders’ Summit 2026

The summit will bring leaders together to focus on the operational reality of delivering digital change, from using AI responsibly to building stronger data foundations and supporting teams through transformation.

NEC Health will contribute to the Integrated Care and Prevention theme, which addresses one of the biggest challenges facing systems today: making services feel connected to the people who rely on them. Integrated care depends on better data flow, clearer handoffs and earlier support, but organisations still struggle to create pathways that work across primary, community and acute settings. This strand will look at how systems move from strategy to everyday practice and what it takes to demonstrate impact for patients and staff.

Join NEC Health’s Fireside Chat 

As part of the Integrated Care and Prevention programme, NEC Health will host a fireside chat exploring how design, lived experience and systems thinking can help create services that work for people wherever they access care.

Systems Thinking, Human Feeling: Designing Healthcare Services that Work Better for Everyone
Time: 14:15–14:35
Location: Aire Suite, Level 1

Digital transformation succeeds only when services reflect real patient and staff experience. Danny Weston from NEC Digital Studio will be joined by Claire Dellar, Lead Product Manager for Digital Primary Care at NHS England, to discuss why programmes often fall short at the point of care and what leaders can do to build change that endures.

The discussion will cover:

• Where fragmented delivery breaks down for patients and staff
• How user insight and system context can shape practical, scalable solutions
• The impact of accessibility gaps on patient safety and inclusion
• The steps leaders can take in the next 12–24 months
