ViVE Event

What ViVE Event does

ViVE Event LLC is a private US-based conference organizer that produces the annual ViVE digital health event, co-created with HLTH and CHIME (the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives). The company curates a single annual flagship conference, held in Nashville, that brings together approximately 8,000 attendees including over 2,000 C-level executives across healthcare providers, payers, investors, and digital health startups. The core product is the ViVE event itself, supported by an event technology platform that powers curated 1:1 matchmaking programs (Provider & Payer Connect and Investor Connect), a Startup Pitch Competition, and signature content programs including the Best in KLAS Awards and Techquity for Health Awards.

The underlying technology is an event management and matchmaking platform rather than a deep-tech product: it supports double opt-in 1:1 meeting scheduling, attendee networking, conference operations, and pre-registration interest capture, with a complementary hotel booking channel managed through a designated housing partner. ViVE monetizes primarily through enterprise sponsorship and exhibitor packages (19 named title sponsors for 2026 including Oracle Health, Philips, PwC, ServiceNow, and Medtronic), attendee registration fees, and matchmaking program participation, with a qualifying complimentary-pass mechanism that conditions free attendance on completion of 8 sponsor meetings to drive sponsor value.

The company sits within a broader HLTH event portfolio that includes HLTH USA (Las Vegas) and the newly announced HLTH Europe (Amsterdam, launching 2027), positioning ViVE as the curated, IT-executive-focused counterpart to HLTH USA's broader healthcare business audience. Go-to-market is event-driven and B2B enterprise in nature, targeting senior healthcare technology decision-makers through the CHIME partnership, ambassador program, media partnerships with outlets such as Fierce Healthcare and Fortune, and dedicated featured content tracks including AI, Cybersecurity, Diagnostics, and Interoperability.

• HIMSS: HIMSS Global Health Conference & Exhibition is the largest healthcare IT conference, attracting health system CIOs and digital health vendors. Directly comparable to ViVE in audience (healthcare providers + payers + technology buyers) and business model (registration + sponsorship + exhibitor).
• Money 20/20: Money 20/20 is the flagship fintech conference with high-density C-suite attendance, investor matchmaking, and title sponsorships from financial services incumbents. Closely comparable in format (C-suite density, sponsor economics, curated networking) though serving fintech rather than healthcare.
• CHIME: College of Healthcare Information Management Executives — the co-creator of ViVE and operator of the Fall Forum and Spring Forum CIO events. Directly comparable as a healthcare CIO community and event operator serving the same digital health buyer persona.
• HLTH: HLTH is the parent co-creator of ViVE and operates HLTH USA and HLTH Europe. Closely aligned audience (healthcare decision-makers, payers, innovators) and operates the same event-driven business model, making it both a partner and the most direct comparable event organizer.
• JPMorgan Healthcare Conference: The annual JP Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco convenes senior healthcare executives, investors, and innovators. Comparable to ViVE as a high-density C-suite healthcare gathering with investor matchmaking elements.

Broad incumbents

• Dreamforce: Salesforce's annual Dreamforce is a large enterprise software conference with curated 1:1 matchmaking and high sponsor density. Comparable event economics and matchmaking mechanics, though serving broader enterprise rather than healthcare.

• CES (Consumer Technology Association): CES is the largest consumer/enterprise tech trade show globally with massive sponsor and exhibitor economics. Comparable in scale of trade show operations, though the audience and verticals served are broader than ViVE's healthcare focus.
