As the national rhetoric focuses on supporting the delivery of population health and integrated care, different models of care and new ways of working are being implemented across England. While integrated care systems (ICSs) are emerging to lead on planning and commissioning care for their populations, providers are also working together to deliver integrated care locally.

The aim of the event is to share learning and encourage adoption, so your project should be active, showing digital technology in practice under one of the project themes above.
