In Part Two of our special HLTH 2025 series, Bright Spots in Healthcare host Eric Glazer continues his conversation with Rich Scarfo, President of HLTH, to explore how the event has become a true growth engine for healthcare solution providers.

Rich shares why HLTH is more than a conference - it's a platform intentionally designed to foster meaningful connections, drive measurable ROI, and accelerate innovation across the ecosystem. He breaks down how Market Connect and Investor Connect differ from traditional conference networking, best practices for making the most of those high-value 15-minute meetings, and strategies for effective follow-up that turn introductions into lasting partnerships.

You'll also hear how HLTH creates an environment that blends serious business with immersive, memorable experiences ensuring that startups, investors, payers, and providers leave with actionable opportunities.

With HLTH 2025 taking place October 19–22 in Las Vegas, this episode is a must-listen for solution providers and innovators looking to maximize their presence and impact at the year's most influential healthcare event.
