Our Take
Why Exhibit
The definitive US telehealth and digital health conference. If you sell telehealth platforms, remote patient monitoring devices, virtual care software, or clinical communication tools, ATA NEXUS delivers the most concentrated audience of health-system digital health decision-makers in the country. The intimate resort setting creates organic networking.
Why Skip
Attendance is modest (~2,000) compared to HIMSS or HLTH. Exhibit pricing is opaque and sold via custom packages. Companies selling hardware or devices (not software/digital) may find the audience less relevant. The resort venue limits exhibit hall scale.
Insider Tips
ATA NEXUS has evolved from a traditional trade show to a solutions-focused engagement event. The 'Solution Exchange' format works best for interactive demos and consultative selling. Orlando in May is hot -- the resort setting is a feature, not a bug, as it keeps attendees on-site and engaged. NEXUS competes with HLTH and ViVE for the digital health audience.

When is ATA NEXUS ?

Is ATA NEXUS worth exhibiting at?
The definitive US telehealth and digital health conference. If you sell telehealth platforms, remote patient monitoring devices, virtual care software, or clinical communication tools, ATA NEXUS delivers the most concentrated audience of health-system digital health decision-makers in the country.
Where is ATA NEXUS 2026 being held?
ATA NEXUS 2026 takes place May 12–14, 2026 at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress in Orlando, Florida. The resort venue is intentional — it keeps the ~2,000 attendees on-site and creates a more intimate, networking-focused environment than a typical convention center show.
What is the "Solution Exchange" format at ATA NEXUS?
Solution Exchange is the American Telemedicine Association's exhibit format for NEXUS. It emphasizes hands-on, consultative engagement and interactive demos rather than passive booth presence. Companies selling telehealth platforms, RPM devices, virtual care software, and clinical communication tools tend to get the most out of this format because the conversations are longer and more solution-focused.
How is ATA NEXUS 2026 different from HIMSS or HLTH?
ATA NEXUS is the definitive US conference specifically for telehealth and virtual care decision-makers, drawing ~2,000 attendees with ~50% purchasing authority. HIMSS is broader health IT at much larger scale, and HLTH is broader digital health investor/innovation programming. NEXUS is smaller and more concentrated on telehealth and digital health buyers — better for targeted exhibitors, worse if you need raw volume.
Who should exhibit at ATA NEXUS 2026?
ATA NEXUS is a strong fit for companies selling telehealth platforms, remote patient monitoring devices, virtual care software, clinical communication tools, patient engagement platforms, and digital health solutions. The audience skews to telehealth directors, health-system CIOs, digital health executives, clinical informaticists, and health policy makers. Pure hardware/device companies without a digital or virtual care angle will find the audience less relevant.
Who do I contact to exhibit or sponsor at ATA NEXUS 2026?
Exhibit and sponsorship inquiries go through Melissa Park at the American Telemedicine Association (mpark@americantelemed.org). ATA NEXUS is run in-house by ATA rather than through an outside management company. Pricing is not publicly listed — packages are sold via custom proposals, so reach out early to lock in placement and the configuration that fits your goals.
Does ATA NEXUS 2026 have a virtual or hybrid component?
No. ATA NEXUS 2026 is an in-person-only event at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress. The resort venue is part of the value proposition: keeping decision-makers physically on-site for three days drives the kind of unstructured, high-intent networking that virtual programming cannot replicate.
What does it cost to exhibit at ATA NEXUS 2026?
ATA does not publish booth pricing for NEXUS — sponsorship and exhibit packages are sold via custom proposals from Melissa Park at mpark@americantelemed.org. Based on comparable mid-size telehealth/digital health shows, expect all-in costs in the $2,000–$10,000 range for a basic Solution Exchange package, with higher-tier sponsorships (speaking slots, branded experiences) running materially more.
