Why Wait Until April? Start Your HIMSS27 Sales Conversations in November

Put your expertise in front of healthcare decision-makers months before Chicago with HIMSS27 Unveiled.

Get your company into the conversation before buyers get to Chicago.

On November 12, 2026, HIMSS27 Unveiled gives exhibitors an opportunity to reach healthcare decision-makers through expert discussions, technology demonstrations and content that puts their solutions in focus.

For your sales team, that means an earlier start: introduce your capabilities, identify interested prospects and build relationships in the months leading up to HIMSS27. Make November the first step toward more productive meetings in April.

Give Prospects a Reason to Know Your Company

A sponsorship can put your expertise into the program and your supporting content within reach. The available formats serve different objectives:

Sponsorship
Featured opportunities, at a glance
Platinum

A 15-minute post-keynote fireside chat, spotlight video and dedicated branded content zone

Premier

Prerecorded panel participation, spotlight video and shared topical content zone

Gold

A 15-minute prerecorded demo and shared topical content zone

Package inclusions vary. Content zones can hold case studies, white papers and executive briefs.

The commercial opportunity comes from connecting the format to something your company can demonstrate convincingly. A panel contribution can establish your perspective on a difficult industry question. A demo can make a specific capability tangible. A customer case study can provide the detail a prospect needs to continue evaluating.

Together, those elements give your team several ways to earn attention and establish a reason for further discussion.

Turn Event Interest Into Relevant Outreach

Sponsor reporting covers registration, attendance, session interactions and downloads, giving your team context for follow-up.

Use that context to make the next contact useful. A prospect who explored an implementation case study might benefit from a discussion with your delivery team. Someone who watched a demo may want a closer look at how the solution handles a particular task.

Plan those next steps before the preview. Select the resources your team will use, identify who will handle inquiries and decide what a productive follow-up meeting should accomplish. This helps connect the sponsorship to the work your sales team is already doing.

Build a Longer Runway to Chicago

November participation gives your HIMSS27 campaign an earlier milestone. Your team can introduce a priority solution, learn which questions come back and use the following months to develop those conversations.
That creates a practical sequence: share your expertise at the preview, follow up around a relevant need and arrange a deeper discussion as plans for Chicago take shape. For existing prospects, the preview can also provide a timely reason to reconnect and bring another stakeholder into the conversation.
As you plan your exhibit, consider what would make your April meetings more productive. Earlier introductions, a clearer understanding of prospect interests and more time for follow-up can all support that work.
