CONNECT 22 in Nashville

September 2022

Last September, ABOUT premiered its new client conference, CONNECT 22 in Nashville, Tennessee. A new name and new location to reimagine patient flow and empower health systems to operate as one system of care. The event brought together customers, healthcare and thought leaders, and solution experts for one-and-a-half days to learn, network, and share. Attendees discovered new ways to get the most out of the ABOUT solutions today and into the future, through keynote speakers, panels, demo sessions, and discussions.
