The OpenELIS Foundation is excited to attend the HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) Global Health Conference & Exhibition from March 3-6, 2025, in Las Vegas.
The HIMSS conference is one of the largest gatherings for healthcare professionals, bringing together experts from across the industry to explore innovations in health information and technology.
Why HIMSS?
HIMSS is a hub for cutting-edge discussions on public health, data modernization, interoperability, and the future of healthcare. The conference attracts a diverse audience, which includes healthcare providers, government agencies, tech innovators, public health care and nonprofit organizations—all dedicated to improving healthcare.
For the OpenELIS Foundation, this event is a perfect opportunity to learn and collaborate. With a strong focus on public health, the conference features sessions, forums, and networking opportunities that align with our mission: leveraging open-source health information systems to improve laboratory data management.
Our Focus at HIMSS 2025
We’re particularly excited about the Public Health Pre-Conferences on March 3rd:
- Interoperability & Health Information Exchange Forum: Jessie, Manager of Implementation and Training will be attending this session dealing with improving data-sharing across health systems.
- Public Health Data Modernization Forum – Shondra, Director of the Foundation, will dive into the latest strategies for strengthening public health infrastructure through modern data solutions.
Throughout the conference, we’ll attend as many public health sessions as possible to stay ahead of new technologies, trends, and best practices that impact laboratory and health information systems.
Connecting with Partners & Building New Relationships
Beyond learning, the HIMMS conference is an opportunity to meet and connect with existing partners as well as new organizations. HIMSS 2025 promises to be an inspiring event, and we’re eager to bring back fresh insights that will help shape our work. If you’re attending and would like to connect, let’s chat!
