Tech Salon NYC: Practical AI for Healthcare in LMICs
Curated by Patricia Mechael, CEO of Health Enabled
Technology Salon — UN Week Edition
How do we design and deploy responsible AI in healthcare — especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where the stakes are highest and the risks most complex?
Join Patricia Mechael, CEO of Health Enabled, for a high-energy, off-the-record conversation on the real-world use of AI in global health, with a specific focus on underserved communities.
This Tech Salon isn't about theory — it’s about lived experience, hard questions, and collaborative problem-solving.
Salon-Style Format (90 minutes):
We’ll dive into a moderated, peer-driven discussion on:
How AI is being used to improve health outcomes in LMICs
The ethical and equity risks of deploying AI in fragile health systems
What’s working, what’s failing — and what needs to happen next
Key Lead Discussants:
We’ll hear from four expert voices representing global health organizations, policy leaders, and cutting-edge AI developers — each bringing distinct perspectives to spark dialogue.
Participation is the point:
With ~40 leaders in the room — practitioners, funders, technologists, and healthcare experts — this is a space for everyone to contribute. Come ready to share what you know, learn what you don’t, and connect with others navigating similar questions.
Whether you’re piloting AI tools in health systems or seeking to move past the buzzwords, this conversation will help you sharpen your thinking and deepen your impact.
