ForwardGill Affiliate Network Annual Conference
Greetings and welcome to the 11th Annual Gill Affiliate Network Conference, scheduled for November 4, 2025 at the Central Bank Center in downtown Lexington. This year’s theme, Empowering Care Together, celebrates the collective strength of the network and the shared opportunities we have to drive innovation, elevate clinical care, and expand access to high-quality cardiovascular services across Kentucky.
This year’s conference features experts from across the state, region, and nation to share forward-looking perspectives on the changing landscape of cardiovascular care. Attendees will also have the opportunity to exchange ideas, learn best practices, and explore strategies to advance heart health throughout the region.
In addition to attending the conference, we invite you to mark your calendar for the Gill Affiliate Network Annual Conference Reception on November 3, 2025. This evening of cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will offer an opportunity to connect with colleagues across the state. As part of our theme, Empowering Care Together, the reception will also feature a dynamic guest speaker who will share practical, inspiring strategies for leading with purpose and fostering collaboration in today’s evolving healthcare landscape.
Don’t forget to stay connected with fellow attendees throughout the conference and reception by using #GAN25 to share your conference highlights on social media.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Central Bank Center – near historic Rupp Arena in downtown Lexington – as we exchange ideas, expand knowledge, and empower care across Kentucky, together.
