The World Hospital Congress of the International Hospital Federation (IHF) dates back to 1929, when it was first held in Atlantic City, USA as a biennial event. Since 2015 it has been held annually across the globe.

The Congress is a unique global forum connecting leaders and decision-makers of hospitals, health services and healthcare organizations to:

• share knowledge and good practices in leadership, management and service delivery
• exchange new ideas and innovations
• network with other senior executives from across the international healthcare community.

IHF member organizations have various opportunities to showcase their accomplishments throughout Congress. The delegate makeup reflects the IHF membership which spans more than 60 countries. It is a one-stop shop for those seeking the opportunity and environment in which to engage in a 360-degree learning and networking experience with global peers.
