Clinical Trials Conclave
Clinical Trials Conclave Europe is a premier gathering where regulators, patient representatives, clinical operations leaders, supply chain experts, and forward-thinking innovators come together to address the most pressing challenges in clinical trial operations and supply chain transformation.
The conclave features two co-located conferences:
Clinical Trials Innovation Programme (CTIP)
Focused on clinical trial design, digital transformation, AI integration, patient-centricity, and operational excellence in modern clinical research.
Clinical Trials Supply Forum (CTS)
Dedicated to clinical trial supply chain strategy, logistics, cold chain, and operational bottlenecks in trial delivery and supply management.
Both conferences will take place at the same venue while running in separate rooms with distinct agendas, audiences, and speaker faculties, creating a focused yet collaborative ecosystem for the clinical trials community.
In 2027, Basel is expected to host some of the most influential gatherings in the clinical research ecosystem, including the Clinical Trials Innovation Programme 2027, alongside other major life sciences events focused on AI, decentralized trials, patient-centricity, and operational excellence.
