Artificial intelligence has reached an inflection point in healthcare. While innovation has accelerated, the true challenge lies not in capability—but in execution.

This forum brings together executives, clinicians, researchers, policymakers, and technology leaders to address a central question:

How do we operationalize AI in healthcare—ethically, clinically, and at scale—while delivering real value to patients and health systems?

Throughout the day, you'll explore:

  • Proven clinical and operational use cases
  • Lessons learned from implementation inside health systems
  • Regulatory, reimbursement, and policy considerations
  • The role of academia in validation and evidence generation
  • Pathways from research to commercialization

“I invite you to join us at Lone Star HealthTech AI Frontier 2026. This gathering brings together a select group of leaders from academia, healthcare systems, policy, and industry—all focused on real-world AI implementation with measurable impact. We'll examine proven use cases, learn from implementation challenges, and chart pathways from research to clinical practice. I look forward to welcoming you to Houston for the conversations that will shape healthcare technology's future.

I hope you'll join us for what promises to be a meaningful day of dialogue and collaboration.”

Best regards, Dr. Asif
