We are delighted to welcome you to the Quality Improvement South West International Conference 2026!

 

​This year we are thrilled to announce that QISW will be taking place in person for the first time since 2019. After years of bringing the healthcare community together virtually, we are excited to finally meet face to face, and we warmly invite you to join us in person for what promises to be our most memorable conference yet.​

 

This year we turn our focus to one of the most exciting and rapidly evolving areas in modern healthcare — Artificial Intelligence. From supporting clinical decision-making to streamlining administrative processes, AI is already beginning to reshape how we deliver and improve care. But with great opportunity comes important questions: How do we implement AI safely and equitably? How do we ensure it enhances rather than replaces the human elements of healthcare? And how can quality improvement principles help us get it right?

 

​QISW 2026 will bring together inspiring keynote speakers, an expert QI panel, oral presentations from around the world and a chance to present your own work to an international audience.​

 

As always, QISW is completely free and open to all healthcare professionals and students, wherever you are in the world.

 

We look forward to meeting you in person and learning and improving together.

 

​Date and venue details coming soon — watch this space! We aim to see you all this Autumn 2026.
