Cambridge Healthtech Institute (CHI) operates as a life science network connecting researchers and business professionals from pharma, biotech, and academic organizations. Its portfolio spans conferences, educational services, meeting planning, and publishing through brands such as CHI Conferences, Barnett Educational Services, Cambridge Meeting Planners, and Healthtech Publishing, which includes Bio-IT World, Clinical Informatics News, and Diagnostics World, along with newsletters. Founded in 1992 and based in Needham Heights, Massachusetts, CHI emphasizes information sources that provide insights, balanced coverage of developments, and attention to end-user perspectives on new products, technology, and business strategy. Its customers are life sciences professionals—researchers and business leaders from pharmaceutical, biotech, and academic circles—who use CHI's events and publications to access current insights and connect with peers and potential collaborators. A recent development illustrating its activity is the announcement of the agenda for the Bio-IT World Venture, Innovation & Partnering Conference in March 2026, an event that brings together investors, executives, entrepreneurs, and startups to link capital, technology, and science to accelerate drug discovery.
