Networking & Events

The OR Business Management Summit brings together a one-of-a-kind community of business leaders who want to improve the financial performance of their ORs—and who know how to have a little fun while they’re at it. Find out more about who attends here!

You’ll be surrounded by professionals from hospitals, health systems, and ambulatory surgery centers of all sizes. Some have been leading OR business operations for years, while others are newer to their roles and hungry to learn. Many are attending for the first time, bringing fresh ideas and new perspectives, while others return year after year to stay sharp and connected.

What they all have in common is a shared drive to make the business side of surgery smarter, more efficient, and more collaborative. Whether you manage people, processes, data, or dollars, you’ll find yourself in good company—with people who speak your language and understand your challenges.

For some added fun outside the Summit, you can add a ticket for the Off-the-Clock event! This event is meant for attendees and exhibitors to unwind, relax and have some time outside of the conference to connect with peers. Indulge in a delightful dinner spread and enjoy a selection of drinks and entertainment in Austin. Past events have included boats, pickleball, wineries, pub crawls and haunted city tours! Stay tuned for details.

*Separate ticket required.

Sunday, February 8

Arriving early to the conference and don’t want to miss the Super Bowl? Join us this Sunday evening to kick off the conference with a special Big Game Watch Party. Connect with your peers, enjoy some drinks, and cheer on your favorite team as we gear up for an exciting week ahead. It’s the perfect way to break the ice, build connections, and set the tone for a winning conference experience. We’ll see you there!

Join us for the Welcome Reception, held on the first evening of the conference, to meet fellow perioperative business leaders who are looking for solutions to daily challenges just like you! Your new peers have likely experienced similar issues, and can offer suggestions to come out on top. Plus, who doesn’t love an opportunity to kick back, relax, and have a bit of fun?!

All attendees are invited to come at no additional cost.
