The event recognises the importance of opening the eyes of young, fresh talent to the opportunities in healthcare communications, something that those who enter the sector often fall into rather than actively pursue, due to lack of awareness of opportunities in the industry and not understanding they impact they can make with a career in healthcomms. 

Being a part of the healthcare sector is a vocation, not a 9-5. It’s vital that the healthcare communications industry continues to attract the best, most creative minds to drive progress and new thinking in healthcare, and we’re here to support them every step of the way. 

Our core focus is to have a positive and influential impact on the future of the healthcare sector and help nurture and support the abundance of upcoming creative talent, who will ultimately shape the future of our industry. 

At Page & Page, we believe in anticipating the future  

In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare, the need for innovative and forward-thinking approaches has never been more pressing. As we stand on the cusp of a new era, it is imperative to recognise and celebrate the profound impact of organisations that are dedicated to shaping the future of healthcare. At Page & Page, we’re an independent creative agency, established 10 years ago, that specialises in healthcare communications. We’ve emerged as a leader in healthcare communications, using the power of imaginative communications to bridge the healthcare gap and ensure that every individual can lead their healthiest possible life.
