INSIGHT festival – Thank you for coming!

A huge thank you to all who came to INSIGHT our annual festival of learning and sharing events for the NHS, local government and other partners across health and care.  We are overwhelmed with the level of interest and enthusiasm – helping to grow this community of people who care about analytics, about evidence and about quality decision making.

There were 5,500 registrations for what was a fascinating line up of events – expert speakers from health and care and beyond – all with a passion for high quality decision making and ‘the science and craft of decision making’.

We hope you enjoyed the festival and if you missed any events, most recording are now available – the links in the table below.

We had some wonderful feedback!

‘Thank you so much for an amazing session and for leading such an important and perhaps landmark study’ (Losing Women NEW REPORT – menopause and the NHS workforce)

‘Thank you this session was brilliant and inspiring’ (Discussion with Professor Bola Owolabi on health inequalities)

‘Thank you for this. As others have said, very inspiring! Worked in Public Health related roles for 15+yrs and to hear people at exec level talking about health inequalities in a way I’ve not experienced before – gives me a lot of hope.’ (Discussion with Professor Bola Owolabi on health inequalities)

‘This has been superb, thank you’ (Smarter decision making for your population)
