About DMHD 2027

Europe's Leading Deployed Medical Conference

The battlespace and security environment has been transformed. Increased competition, the rapid proliferation of drones and the use of AI, contested supply chains and the need for prolonged care in dispersed and contested theatres, means tomorrow’s military medic, must survive before they can treat. In consideration of this, the 2027 theme is: Preparing for the Unknown: Medical Readiness for Emerging Threats.

DMHD 2027 is held in association with Defence Medical Services, part of the UK Cyber & Specialist Operations Command, continuing our long-standing collaboration with UK Defence.

The leading forum for NATO and allied nations to align efforts on how to tackle emerging threats and overcome challenges, while fostering interoperability to achieve whole of alliance medical readiness.

A Word From Our Attendees

Very Valuable

IT [DMHD] is very valuable, we have a lot of challenges ahead of us but here we have the right people together to solve these things, to move in the right direction, to discuss difficulties and share best practices

NATO Logistics committee

Opening up a lot of Opportunities

From an industry perspective having the opportunity to have one on one discussions with flag level officers, the generals, who are facing issues that are very dynamic is opening up a lot of opportunities for us to build on those relationships

North American Rescue

All of the Major [NATO] Decision Makers

Well this conference [DMHD] in particular concentrates all of the major decision makers within NATO under one roof, for us to get that level of engagement elsewhere, would require multiple visits, multiple flights, whereas this is a concentrated opportunity to have that engagement over two days.
