🗓️ SomX Events Roundup: November 2024
The best healthtech and biotech events, curated for you by SomX.
Trick or treat means one thing and one thing only… we can start talking about Christmas 👀🎄
If you thought October was busy, November has you in for a treat - judging by next month’s events roster you really will be ready for a Christmas break when it comes. And if you’re still recovering from HLTH Vegas, the rest of us have no sympathy (only FOMO).
November starts strong with one of our favourite events in the calendar - Medtech World in Malta. For anyone looking for a final fix of healthtech in the European sunshine for 2024, head over to Skyscanner and book those flights (and conference tickets) immediately. I’m having to sit it out this year as I’m in the final few weeks of growing a healthtech bro, but with any luck, I’ll be on the plane with this little one in tow for 2025.
Closer to home (for me) The BMJ is also unveiling its very first innovation conference Future Health. On 19-20 November they’re bringing together patients, clinicians and innovators to discuss real-life challenges first-hand and explore how we can all make impact together. This magic code [SOMXFH50] gets you 50% off your ticket - Black Friday came early here!!
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us in London Bridge for the Official Sifted Summit Warmup - it was, as always, a delight to see so many of you there and to be a part of this very special community!
As a final nod to Halloween, we’re bringing you a special Christmas treat: SomX and Google Cloud’s Healthtech Talks Christmas Party - join us (if you’re wearing a festive jumper) on 27 November at Google’s Kings Cross HQ. The festive season gets hectic so we wanted to get into your diaries early. You can pre-register here and it’s live, the official signup will drop straight into your inbox before everyone else. Usual spoiler alert: Numbers are limited and I’m still working out how to hire Wembley Stadium for you all - but we hope to see and celebrate with as many of you as we can fit in the room!
That’s it for now - enjoy the wonderful chaos of all the events, fireworks and bonfires that November brings!
See you soon :)
Jessica.
