ABHI UK HealthTech Conference 2026

The Association of British HealthTech Industries runs its flagship two-day conference across regulation and market access. Day one (9 Nov) is MHRA-heavy: Lawrence Tallon keynotes on the UK's regulatory offer, and panels cover recognition and reliance, the AI Commission outputs (with Prof Alastair Denniston of Birmingham), digitalisation and post-market surveillance. Day two turns to NHS adoption - Will Warburton of NHS England, the Department of Health and Social Care, NICE's Prof Jonathan Benger, and investors including Apposite Capital on what gets a device bought and deployed. It's a senior room: 200-plus delegates a day from industry, the NHS, government and regulation, at the Cavendish Conference Centre. Paid, with multi-buy discounts for five or more. Attendee names and organisations are shared with delegates beforehand unless you opt out. Why go: if you're building healthtech and need to navigate MHRA, NICE and NHS procurement, this puts the people who run those pathways in one room. Less useful if you're pre-regulatory or consumer-facing.
