Innovation X Health, a thought-leadership platform curated by Decimal.health, will host the Innovation X Health Program during the JPM 2026 Healthcare Conference, bringing together leaders across biotech, pharma, health systems, technology, and investment to explore the forces shaping healthcare’s next decade.
This year’s theme, “From Scarcity to Plenty: The Next Leap in Intelligent Health,” envisions a future where healthcare is no longer defined by a shortage of clinicians, capacity, or time, but by an abundance of intelligence, automation, and participation. It marks the dawn of “plenty”—a world where data becomes insight, patients become true partners, and intelligence becomes the foundational infrastructure of care. The goal is to define what a plenty-enabled health system looks like and outline what investors, systems, and innovators must build today to make that future real.
INNOVATION X AWARDS
Introducing the first-ever Innovation X Health Awards by Decimal.health! This year, we’re honoring two categories:
- Community Impact Award: Recognizing leaders improving community health outcomes, advancing health equity, or elevating patient voices.
- Breakthrough Startup Award: Highlighting startups demonstrating meaningful impact, validated traction, and a clear path toward scale.
AGENDA
This full-day event will feature a 3-hour Innovation X Health program curated by Decimal.health, followed by an engaging 3-hour CancerX Health program, a public–private partnership dedicated to accelerating oncology innovation, and will conclude with a networking reception. You are invited to join us for the entire day of insight, collaboration, and connection.- Innovation X Health

- Networking Reception
As demand increases and the workforce tightens, healthcare’s existing access models can no longer support the needs of patients or providers. This session brings together leaders who are redefining what “access” means—designing care models that reach patients where they are, expanding system capacity through redesigned workflows, team-based approaches, and intelligent tools, and reimagining the front door of healthcare to be more responsive, equitable, and sustainable for the future.
Hosted by HIMSS NorCal Chapter
In a landscape focused on efficiency and transformation, the most meaningful return on innovation is time—time restored to clinicians, patients, and operations. This investor-focused discussion examines why time has become the ultimate performance metric, how intelligent systems unlock capacity across the healthcare ecosystem, and what types of solutions and founders are best positioned to create outsized value in an era where saved minutes translate to measurable impact.

Innovation in oncology is expanding well beyond artificial intelligence. This panel explores how wearable technologies, advanced sensors, remote monitoring tools, and other emerging solutions are reshaping cancer detection, treatment, and ongoing care. Speakers will discuss how these technologies generate real-time insights, extend care beyond the clinic, and enable more personalized and proactive cancer management. Learn how health systems and innovators are integrating wearables and next-generation tools into pathways that support earlier intervention, improved patient experience, and better outcomes across the oncology journey.
Environmental toxins, unsafe food additives, and pervasive pollutants contribute to rising cancer incidence—representing a largely untapped frontier for innovation. This session explores how technology (“code”) and investment (“capital”) can drive systemic prevention by improving air, water, and food systems. With federal momentum toward eliminating carcinogenic exposures and growing consumer demand for transparency, panelists will discuss how prevention can become a scalable, market-driven opportunity that reduces long-term cancer burden.
Join us for an open-to-all networking reception where attendees can meet peers, engage with our partners, and explore the broader ecosystem driving innovation in oncology. Enjoy light hors d’oeuvres and drinks as you connect with leaders across health systems, industry, startups, and investment.
During the reception, we will also announce the CancerX Accelerator Showcase winners, following the startup pitches earlier in the day. Celebrate the new cohort, build meaningful relationships, and discover opportunities to collaborate across the CancerX community.
