Delivering Sustainable Healthcare for Ireland's Future

The Health Summit

February 4, 2027

Croke Park Stadium, Dublin

Shaping the Future of Healthcare in Ireland

Ireland's healthcare system is in a defining period of transformation. An ageing population, growing demand for services, workforce challenges, rising costs, and worsening health inequalities despite our economic improvements, are placing unprecedented pressure on healthcare delivery. At the same time, advances in digital health, AI, new models of care, and a stronger focus on prevention offer opportunities to transform how health services are designed and delivered.

The Health Summit 2027 gathers together healthcare leaders, policymakers, clinicians, academics, patient advocates, and innovators to explore the solutions that will create a more sustainable, connected, and patient-centred health service for the future. Topics will include workforce transformation, healthcare funding, AI and digital health, healthy ageing, prevention, mental health, and integrated care.

Now in its 23rd year, The Health Summit remains Ireland's leading forum for examining the critical issues shaping the future of healthcare and wellbeing. 

Join us next February and be part of the national discussion on how Ireland can deliver better health outcomes, improve access to care, and build a resilient healthcare system for future generations. Register today to secure your place at The Health Summit 2027 and connect with the leaders and decision-makers shaping Irish healthcare.
