The European Association of Hospital Managers (EAHM) will hold a Strategic Session in Paris on 14 September 2026, bringing together EAHM leadership and representatives of national member associations to discuss the Association’s future direction and strategic priorities.
This session will take place at an important moment for EAHM, following the appointment of the new Secretary General and the beginning of a new phase in the Association’s development. It will provide an opportunity to bring renewed energy, strengthen member engagement and define a shared direction for the coming period.
Following the 29th EAHM Congress in Vilnius, the Paris Strategic Session will be a key milestone in translating the ideas, discussions and policy messages of the Congress into a practical strategic agenda for EAHM and its members.
