Connected Health by The Arzen Collective will take place at Bow Street Mall, Lisburn, on 17 October 2026, bringing together professionals, organisations and innovators from across health, wellness and community support to explore a more connected future for care.

Founded by Juliet Bakovljev, The Arzen Collective was created from a belief that health cannot continue to be viewed in isolated parts.

The event will bring together medical specialists, wellness practitioners, health and wellness technology providers, charities, social enterprises, retailers and community organisations under one roof, creating space for collaboration between sectors that too often work separately.

For Juliet, the ambition behind Connected Health goes far beyond hosting another health and wellbeing event.

“People do not experience their health in separate boxes, yet that is often how support is delivered. Physical health, emotional wellbeing, trauma, lifestyle, community support and medical care all influence one another. Until we begin connecting those dots, we are never going to truly deliver whole-person care.”

Alongside exhibitors and live demonstrations, the event will include open discussions on stage about the gaps that currently exist across health and care, the challenges people face when moving between different services, and what can be done collectively to begin filling those gaps.

The focus will be on conversation rather than competition.

Juliet added:
“This is about medical, holistic, community and innovative approaches being able to stand beside one another. We need to be willing to have honest conversations about what is working, what is missing and where people are falling through the gaps.”

“No one profession, organisation or sector has all the answers. But when expertise is shared, connections are made and people begin working together, we create the possibility of something much stronger.”

The Arzen Collective has grown around this collaborative model, bringing practitioners from a broad range of disciplines together and developing coordinated pathways designed around the individual rather than a single treatment or symptom.

Connected Health will take that philosophy beyond the walls of the collective and into a public event designed to start wider conversations around how healthcare, wellbeing, technology, community organisations and social enterprises can work more closely together.

The event will also provide exhibitors with the opportunity to showcase their work to the public, build relationships with professionals from other disciplines and take part in a wider movement towards more joined-up care.

Exhibitor applications are now open until 17 August 2026, with applications welcomed from organisations and professionals across the full health and wellbeing landscape.

Juliet said:
“We want people to leave Connected Health having met someone they would never normally have worked with, having learned something new and perhaps having started a collaboration that continues long after the event.”

“This is not about competing. It is about connecting. It is about recognising that if we are going to create a better future for health, we have to start building it together.”
