The 2015 mHealth Summit will take place November 8-11 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in the Washington DC area. The mHealth summit is a forum for learning and sharing how technology is transforming health and health care. The mHealth Summit features the two-day Global mHealth Forum which focuses on mobile and connected health in low- and middle-income countries. The Global mHealth Forum is presented in partnership with the mHealth Working Group and USAID.

Mobile technology has the potential to transform health care on the front lines for people living in some of the most underserved communities around the world. IntraHealth is committed to developing technology solutions that help health workers provide high-quality services and applies its technology expertise to the many different challenges health workers face. We're excited to share what we've learned with the broader mHealth community. We hope to see you there. 

This year's theme: Anytime, Anywhere: Engaging Patients and Providers
