Invitation-Only Event

Convene 2026.

A private forum for leaders transforming healthcare through humanity and high-performance.

The Gathering

Not a conference. A forum.

We look forward to being with you at Convene 2026 — a gathering of executives sharing perspectives, learning from peers, and pressure-testing ideas with those who understand the terrain. Together, we will engage in meaningful discussions on how to scale responsibly, build transformative healthcare companies, and use mission-driven capital as a force for good.

Convene 2026 is not a conference. It’s a closed-door, invitation-only forum. We are gathering founders, C-suite operators, and investors across our client network to engage in an interactive leadership experience among peers who are reshaping the future of healthcare.

Who Will Be In The Room

The most experienced leaders in investor-backed healthcare.

Founders, operators, and investors navigating the same terrain you are — and who have demonstrated their ability to uphold humanity and high performance across the teams and organizations they lead.
