The International Technology Enabled Care (ITEC) Conference 2026
16 & 17 March 2026, The ICC BirminghamITEC 2026 takes place at a defining moment for the TEC sector.
With the full digital switchover less than 12 months away, organisations across health, housing and care are under pressure to adapt at speed. At the same time, technological innovation and community-led approaches are opening up new possibilities to deliver care that is more connected, inclusive, and person-centred.
This year’s conference will highlight how community hubs and neighbourhood-based models are reshaping service delivery, and how TEC can enrich lives, strengthen local systems, and empower professionals to provide care that truly meets people’s needs.
At ITEC 2026, you’ll gain:
- Practical strategies to navigate the switchover and scale digital solutions that work.
- Real-world case studies and lived experiences showing TEC in action across health, housing, and care.
- Actionable insights on using AI, data and predictive tools responsibly to improve lives.
- Guidance and tools to build digital confidence in staff, communities, and people receiving support.
ITEC 2026 will give you the answers. Enjoy a packed two-day programme of inspiring speakers, practical workshops, live feedback, networking opportunities and real-life experience.
