Nelson Advisors has been invited to Chair the Healthcare AI panel at the Barclays Elevate 2026 Conference.
Barclays Health Elevate is a flagship event series hosted by Barclays Eagle Labs and their specialist Health, Wellbeing, and Life Sciences team. The initiative brings together healthcare founders, life sciences researchers, tech innovators, investors, academics, and NHS/social care providers to focus on how to scale healthcare innovation and solve critical industry challenges.
The conference typically centers around three core pillars:
Disruptive Technology & AI: Integrating artificial intelligence safely into heavily regulated environments to ease administrative burdens, reduce staff burnout, and improve diagnostic accuracy.
Sustainable Healthcare: Strategies for healthtech and life sciences businesses to advance toward net-zero operations.
Scaling & Investment: Navigating post-pandemic healthtech funding, unlocking UK growth champions, and managing NHS procurement pathways.
