2026 RETREAT THEME:
THE AI DREAM: Be there when the future is conceived
Artificial intelligence is no longer just hype—it’s poised to revolutionize healthcare marketing, pushing far beyond mere efficiency to fundamentally redefine the game. At the upcoming Joe Public Retreat, top health system marketers will gather to envision how AI could transform the field in ways few have dared to imagine. The group’s exploration will be inspired by Paul Roetzer, nationally recognized AI thought leader, who will spend a day helping to encourage, challenge and motivate attendees to think big and beyond. This isn’t your typical AI training or educational conference; it’s a rare chance to be in the room with the smartest people in the field to build the vision of AI and the future of health system marketing. Don’t miss this incredible experience.
