The mission of Health Connect South (HCS) is to bring together top health leaders and innovators in the Southeast to engage in collaborative conversations on changing the health landscape, create a deeper understanding and ongoing connection between health assets and highlight the region’s status as a vibrant hub for advancement in health. As such, HCS exists as a springboard to enable a deeper relationship between industry silos, which, if framed properly, could foster unique and meaningful growth opportunities in health. The grand vision of this organization is to facilitate a permanent conversation around collective innovation and to broadly define and refine the southeast’s role in the future of health.
