CHIME International is the global network for digital health leaders. We educate and empower the people leading digital transformation in health and care. Everyone from NHS Trusts and ICSs, to ministries of health, health boards, and provider networks around the world.

CHIME has worked with the Florence Nightingale Foundation and NHS England for six years to build and deliver unique digital leadership education programmes for nurses and midwives. The learning gained on our programmes quickly translates to improve patient care using digital technology and data management. We believe digital health has the power to transform the way we plan and provide patient care, and CHIME’s mission is to empower those working in health and care to make the most of these opportunities to lead transformation.
