Ann Arbor, MI, October 29, 2024 – The College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME), the preeminent association for digital health leaders around the world, congratulates our friends at HLTH Inc. on their recent acquisition by Hyve Group. This significant growth opportunity marks an exciting new chapter for HLTH.

Hyve is at the forefront of creating the most dynamic industry events in the world, and we’re excited for what this means for the future.

We want to be clear about what this means for our industry:

• Continuity: The same people who have been responsible for ViVE’s success will remain at the helm, ensuring continuity and stability for the long-term. The leadership team remains the same, with the same mission to deliver an exceptional event experience.

• Commitment: Together we are all deeply committed to ViVE’s mission. We believe in the value ViVE brings to its attendees, sponsors, exhibitors, key partners, and the industry and are excited about its potential for future growth with Hyve coming on board.

• Improvement: Our goal has always been to make ViVE a game-changing industry event for digital health decision-makers that cuts through the noise and delivers real value. Together we will inject even more creativity, innovation, and invest in next-generation technologies aimed at supercharging the opportunities ViVE provides.
