November 4, 2025

A shared gathering of networks: Leadership, innovation and connection

Last month, leaders and representatives from across Ohio State’s signature health networks gathered in the Recruitment Room at Ohio Stadium for a day focused on connection, learning and collaboration. The event drew 200 participants from 27 organizations across Ohio and beyond, underscoring the strength and reach of the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center’s network partnerships. 

Attendees had the opportunity to: 

  • Hear from university leaders: Ohio State President Walter “Ted” Carter Jr. shared personal reflections on leadership and culture in the face of change, and Wexner Medical Center CEO John Warner, MD, highlighted key elements of the medical center’s strategic plan.
  • Explore network exhibits: Participants engaged with representatives from the James Cancer Network, Digital Consult Network, Epic Connect, Ohio State Health Network (OSHN), the Heart & Vascular Network and OSUP.
  • Go behind the scenes at Ohio Stadium: A special tour took guests through the football locker rooms, down the tunnel and onto the field.
  • Celebrate a milestone: As part of the festivities, participants marked the 30th birthday of OSHN.

Throughout the day, colleagues connected with peers and reinforced a culture of partnership and collaboration. Thank you to all who joined us. Your engagement made this year’s signature networks celebration a success and set the stage for even deeper collaboration in the year ahead.
