By creating a forum to share knowledge and experience, Aspen Ideas: Health offers a unique opportunity to turn ideas into action and carve pathways toward better health for all. Join us!

Not Your Ordinary Health Conference

With its unsurpassed rich and creative programming, Aspen Ideas: Health is THE health gathering not to be missed. Our global community of over 1,000 attendees – including healthcare and public health practitioners, researchers, business leaders, policymakers, advocates, artists, and journalists – gathers each summer on the Aspen Institute’s awe-inspiring Colorado campus to elevate and accelerate bold approaches to better health for all.

As the opening segment of the renowned Aspen Ideas Festival, the 3-day event is designed to engage you in challenging conversations, introduce you to extraordinary innovations, and guide you on deep dives into the transformations that lie ahead. The unique format encourages interactivity among attendees and speakers in formal and informal settings. One-on-one interviews, panel discussions, live podcast recordings, and book talks fill the agenda– and morning yoga, nature hikes, and cultural offerings enrich this one-of-a-kind learning experience.
