Apply by 5/21
The only conference for healthcare operators
Knowledgefest is an intimate, invite only healthcare summit that brings together amazing operators to debate, discuss and share best practices + hot takes about all things operations
Built For Leaders In Operations Functions
We’re bringing high quality people and conversations directly to the people who are trying to solve them day in and day out.
You’ll meet your people, swap best practices and level up your ops toolkit along the way.
QUALITY > QUANTITY
1
More Specifics,
Less Powerpoints
The content is going to be a mix of presentations, breakouts, and debates. We’re purposefully not looking for high-level, PR trained executives who won’t say anything interesting on a panel or fireside. The idea is to actually talk about specifics and get actionable advice, templates, and methods to bring back to your company.
2
No Frills
There won’t be a ton of production, but we think that adds to the intimacy and a great way to mask our lack of budget.
3
Meet Your
People
We’re curating a group of diverse people who are passionate about healthcare and have unique perspectives. Before the event itself, we’re putting together virtual events so people have a chance to meet the other attendees.
APPLY TODAY
If you’re in the operations function at a healthcare company and you've been looking for a "no fluff" event, we’d love to have you. We think it’s going to be a lot of fun, very informative, and will help you meet other people going through the same struggles you are.

SOME NOTES
FROM LAST YEAR
Well done Nikhil Krishnan and Danielle Poreh! Really enjoyed the content, but even more so the amazing group of operators you guys assembled. Looking forward to the next one!

A really great event! It was very cathartic to spend so much time with talented peers and hear about their successes (and challenges). Thanks for putting this on!

Knowledgefest provides a super unique community because you’re surrounded by people who experience different versions of complex, shared problems. This is a conference whose explicit purpose is to create an actionable environment to explore, solve, and connect around those challenges, share the ups and downs of those experiences, and get to know one another in an authentic way throughout. I could not recommend more highly!
Jared Scharf
Manager, Program Operations ~ Maimonides Medical Center
Every single session and transition was meticulously planned to make sure everyone came out with 3-5 tactical approaches to put to the test the next week. No need to ever go to a conference to connect with peers again!
Shohini Gupta
Senior Product Manager ~ First Hand
Knowledgefest was a (damn) pleasure. The planning was perfect from end-to-end; the mix of people and skillsets, the opportunities to meet ahead and after, the locations, the food, and of course, THE CONTENT. As promised, I left with templates, ideas, and tools that I drew on in the weeks following. It was also just fun, mostly because a rare space was cultivated where folks could be authentic. My only hope is that it is longer in future years!
Bobby Guelich
CEO ~ Elion
If you're an operator within a tech-enabled care delivery business, THIS is the conference you need to go to! Not only will you meet peers who are facing the same challenges as you and offer insight - you will walk away with tools & tips that you can implement immediately!
Jayesh Srivastava
General Manager ~ Evergreen Nephrology
A really great event! It was very cathartic to spend so much time with talented peers and hear about their successes (and challenges). Thanks for putting this on!
KevinDeLury
Principal ~ ClearTurn Consulting
It was a refreshingly tactical experience — we didn’t get stuck in the clouds talking about theoretical ideas; we got to the brass tacks of how to do the hard work that needs doing. Also, what kind of conference runs on time? An operator conference, evidently.
Doug Streat
COO ~ Aledade Care Solutions
Thanks for organizing this Nikhil Krishnan and Danielle Poreh - it was one of the most energizing and refreshing conferences I’ve been to in some time. Appreciate the opportunity to partake, get real with, and learn from so many leaders in the healthcare space.
Alyssa Segula
Head of Care, Customer Success ~ Digbi
So niche, so fresh, so useful! The best way to meet other peeps in digital health who are going through similar challenges.
Julia Chapin
COO ~ Abridge

Frequently Asked Questions
We’re setting a hard cap on the number of attendees (~80). We’re going to have some virtual activities leading up to the event so people have a chance to meet the other attendees. This is meant to be intimate and curated, we want you to know the other people coming.
For applicants that are selected, the price will be $850.
Yes! We encourage folks that work with operations teams to apply (ops curious, we might call it). Last year we had speakers that ranged from product to founders - if you're in the trenches, you should apply.
We have an application and will select high quality attendees with diverse perspectives. The application will also help us narrow down topics people actually want to talk about. The application is due on May 21 2024 and we’ll be making decisions shortly after.
The day will consist of a handful of presentations and breakouts. These will largely focus on very tactical things operations people face. Last year included:
- How to think about HIPAA compliance
- Transitioning from d2c to b2b
- Best ways to work with product/engineering teams
- Lessons in scaling clinical ops
- How to scream and cry in the bathroom when things are crashing down around you (jk)
- and more.
The speakers are going to be people who have been there or currently doing it themselves. We’re purposefully not announcing who will be moderating or presenting because we don’t want you to come because of how high profile the speaker is. Also…we’re still finalizing them…but also because we want you to come for the content.
If it’s 2+ weeks out from the event we’ll give you a full refund, 1 week and we’ll give you a 50% refund. Otherwise, unfortunately there’s not much we can do. You’re literally 1/80th of the audience lol.
Because this is an application-based conference and we’re pretty carefully curating the crowd, ticket transfers are not allowed.
Email us at knowledgefest@outofpocket.health and we’ll get back to you.
