Heart Health IS Women’s Health Forum

Heart Health IS Women’s Health Forum

The heart is where women’s health begins. The Heart Health IS Women’s Health Forum opens the Summit with a morning built entirely around that idea — one part education, one part storytelling, and one part call to action.

This signature public event explores what it truly means to care for the whole woman: mind, body, and heart. Experts, advocates, and women with lived experience come together to share what’s shaping the next chapter of cardiovascular care — from prevention and mental wellness to technology and advocacy. Every session is designed to leave you thinking differently, connecting more deeply, and walking away ready to act.

Whether you’re a woman living with heart disease, a caregiver, a clinician, a researcher, or an advocate, this Forum was built for you. Come learn. Come connect. Come be part of the movement.

Call for Speakers

Have a story to tell, research to share, or expertise the community needs to hear? We want you at the Forum.

We’re looking for speakers across six focus areas shaping the future of women’s heart health:

  • Emerging Research & Innovation
  • Overlooked Risk Factors
  • Mental Health, Stress & the Heart
  • Heart Health Across a Woman’s Lifespan
  • Everyday Prevention & Daily Habits
  • Policy & Advocacy

This year, we’re widening the stage. We’re looking for clinicians, researchers, and advocates — and we’re just as eager to hear from women living with heart disease and the caregivers who support them. If you’ve lived it, learned it, or led on it, we want to hear from you.

Applications are open now through August 31, 2026. Selected speakers will be notified in late September/early October 2026.
