HCD Conference 2024 Opens Call For Presentations, Debuts New Logo

The Healthcare Design Conference + Expo opened its 2024 Call for Presentations for the event to be held Oct. 5-8 at Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis.

Devoted to how the design of built environments directly impacts the safety, operation, clinical outcomes, and financial and experiential success of healthcare facilities, both now and into the future, the HCD Conference is driven by a robust conference program developed by industry professionals.

Organizers welcome presentation proposals that respond to the current needs of healthcare organizations and solutions being put into place across the healthcare planning, design, construction, and operations/facility management sectors.

The deadline to submit a presentation proposal is Friday, Feb. 2. For more information and the proposal form, visit hcdexpo.com/conference/call-for-presentations.

The Call for Presentations officially kicked off the 2024 HCD Conference show cycle, which debuts a new logo and visual branding that are aligned with those of Healthcare Design magazine.

“We’ve always been the same brand, and team, producing both the HCD Conference and HCD magazine. We’re excited to communicate the strength of our portfolio by establishing a cohesive look across media and events,” said Jennifer Kovacs Silvis, brand director for Healthcare Design.

The first step in this process is unveiling a new conference logo that integrates the existing magazine logo. Additionally, a fresh look for the event, defined by a modern, design-forward aesthetic, will continue to be developed and rolled out in coming weeks.

“This new branding builds upon the strength of Healthcare Design as the premier source for insight, information, and inspiration for healthcare design industry professionals. We’ll showcase that strength with a look that’s reflective of the high design standards of the audience we serve and leverages branding that thousands of people already know and value,” Silvis adds.

Registration for the 2024 HCD Conference + Expo will open in April 2024.

“This is an exciting time for our industry. We might be facing some of our most demanding challenges, but we are also in a time of unprecedented growth in the construction of new building projects and of building renovations and remodels.” These were the opening words when I penned my first column 22 years ago for the newly launched Healthcare Design magazine. They are as relevant today as they were more than two decades ago. At that time, current spending on healthcare construction was $17 billion a year and was expected to increase to $27 billion annually in the next decade. This year, according to a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, healthcare construction spending is estimated to reach more than $62 billion and continue to increase over the next five years.
