Welcome to the 2023 Health Evolution Summit!

We encourage you to take advantage of this time away from your everyday responsibilities to connect – and reconnect – with other future-minded leaders across the health care industry. We have designed the Summit to help attendees zoom out and discuss major strategic issues on the horizon. Explore the site for more information about the agenda, speakers, and community. We look forward to seeing you in Laguna!

We are excited to come together in person this year and are committed to health and safety for all members of our community. The Summit will be as outdoor-oriented as possible, with all main stage sessions simulcast on outdoor monitors and available on our virtual platform for attendees to participate from anywhere on campus. A majority of the social events will take place in the spectacular outdoor settings that our two hotels in Laguna offer.

Health & Safety

Your health and safety are important to us. We continue to monitor COVID-19 and will follow health safety guidelines from the WHO and CDC, as well as applicable federal, state, and local laws.

  • While we are not requiring vaccinations in order to attend Summit in person, we strongly encourage all attendees to be up to date on COVID-19 vaccines and boosters.
  • COVID-19 Testing. We ask all attendees to self-test before arriving in southern California. If you have cold or flu-like symptoms or test positive for COVID-19, please stay home. Once at Summit, complimentary COVID-19 rapid antigen tests will be available to registered attendees upon request.
  • On-site Health and Safety Measures. Face masks are not currently required within southern California venues per local government/health authority requirements. For those who choose to wear a face mask while attending Summit, we encourage you to do so, and masks will be available upon request. Hand sanitizing stations will be available throughout the Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel and Waldorf Monarch Beach Resort.

Social Media Guidelines

While the Summit is a private, invitation-only event that is closed to outside media, we do encourage you to leverage this experience to responsibly expand the discussion through social media channels, including LinkedIn and blogs.

As a courtesy to your peers — and with the understanding that this safe space is needed to openly discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead — we strongly request that you honor a few social media guidelines:

The Golden Rule. Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Chatham House Rule. Think cautiously about attributing quotes or paraphrases. Under no circumstance should something “overheard” be attributed to an individual without permission.
The New York Times Rule. Avoid writing anything you wouldn’t want to see on the cover of The New York Times.

Summit Attire

The Summit is intended to be a comfortable and casual retreat, so leave your suits and ties at home! Think “retreat chic” when packing your bags: khaki, linen, jersey, casual-collared shirts and blouses. Events are held throughout the daytime and evening, both indoors and out, so plan accordingly as oceanside events may get chilly.
