Forum Salud Digital Chile 2026: Where Technology, Health and Business Converge

The Forum Salud Digital Chile 2026 is the most relevant annual event for those working at the intersection of technology and health in Chile and Latin America. Held at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Santiago, the event brings together in one space the decision-makers of the health system, healthtech innovators, investors financing the digital transformation of the sector, and the regulators who define the rules of the game.

What Is the Forum Salud Digital

The Forum Salud Digital is an annual meeting platform for Chile's digital health ecosystem. Its proposition is simple and powerful: bringing together in the same room people who don't normally talk to each other — public hospital executives with Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, doctors with software engineers, regulators with investors — and generating the conversations that accelerate the transformation of the health system.

In a country where the health system faces structural challenges — waiting lists, access gaps, an aging population — technology is not an option but a necessity. The Forum Salud Digital is the space where that necessity is translated into concrete projects, real alliances and investment decisions.

Key Topics at Forum Salud Digital 2026

The Forum Salud Digital agenda reflects the most urgent debates in health digital transformation:

• Artificial intelligence in health: AI-assisted diagnosis, predictive analytics for chronic diseases, medical image processing and clinical risk management.
• Electronic health records and interoperability: the challenges of connecting health information systems across different providers and levels of care.
• Telemedicine and remote health: the consolidation of remote care models post-pandemic and pending regulatory challenges.
• Health data and privacy: how to leverage clinical data to improve population health without compromising patient privacy.
• Healthtech startups: the health innovation ecosystem in Chile and Latin America, with emphasis on funding models and scalability.

Why Attend the Forum Salud Digital

For hospital and clinic executives, the Forum Salud Digital is an opportunity for direct contact with technology providers who can solve specific organizational problems. For healthtech companies, it's the space with the highest density of health sector decision-makers in Chile in a single location. For investors, it's the platform where the most promising startups in the Latin American digital health ecosystem emerge.

The value of the event lies not only in the conferences — which can be followed later — but in the conversations that happen in hallways, breakfasts and networking lunches, where real agreements begin to take shape.

The Digital Transformation of Health in Chile

Chile has favorable conditions for becoming a regional leader in digital health: high smartphone penetration, a mixed public-private health system that creates incentives for innovation, and a health sector leadership increasingly receptive to technology as a solution to access and quality problems. The Forum Salud Digital is the catalyst for that transformation: the space where vision becomes projects and projects become results.
