​Healthcare AI Fireside Panel & Mixer

​An evening of two focused panels and a mixer for New York's healthcare and AI community — 100–150 attendees, largely founders building in healthcare × data, alongside clinicians, operators and investors. Two hours, twenty minutes per panel, questions, and time on either side to meet people.

​The Panels

​Clinical AI — Where AI is actually landing in clinical practice: what's working at the bedside and in the clinic, what isn't, and what clinicians want built next. Moderated by Sharon Rao, MD.

​Healthcare Data — The data layer under it all: clinical datasets, consent and de-identification, interoperability, and what it takes to make healthcare data usable for AI. Moderated by Vrijen Attawar (Co-Founder, Simovian Intelligence).

​Speakers

​To be announced — three per panel.

​Your Hosts & Moderators

​Sharon Rao, MD is a physician entrepreneur working at the intersection of healthcare and AI. A former physician and EdTech founder (exited), she reaches an audience of 3M+ and now builds NYC's Healthcare × AI community — hands-on workshops, dinners and rooms where clinicians and founders actually build together. She moderates the Clinical AI panel.

​Vrijen Attawar is the co-founder of Simovian Intelligence, which generates clinical-grade, training-ready datasets for healthcare AI through a federated network of hospitals. A two-time founder and ex-McKinsey, he's spent his career at the exact intersection this evening covers — where healthcare data meets the models built on it. He moderates the Healthcare Data panel.

​Together they're convening the people building this space: the founders shipping clinical AI, and the people making healthcare data usable underneath it.
