HIMSS17 Schedule, Meetups & Themes

Navigating the HIMSS annual conference is a challenge. This year, I’ve booked almost all of my time in advance—from dawn to way beyond sundown. I’ll wear comfortable walking shoes, since I’ll likely be speed-walking from one meeting to another across the exhibit hall in near constant motion for 3 days. Here are a few places you can catch me during the conference:

11 - 11:45 am Meet the Social Media Ambassadors, HIMSS Spot Lobby C
