March 5th- 7th, 2026

Join us for two transformative days of hands-on learning, connection, and innovation, crafted with the clinical research site teams in mind and everyone who powers this industry clock forward.

Through immersive workshops, dynamic panels, and engaging keynotes, we will cover from boosting the financial health of sites to effectively using today’s technology tools. But more than that this is about strengthening the community that keeps clinical research moving.

We are bringing together all the professionals who make clinical research possible, sites, sponsors, CROs, vendors, and advocates to connect the dots and foster meaningful relationships. From improving site-sponsor communication to streamlining operations and addressing shared challenges, this event is a space to learn, collaborate, and grow as a unified community.

Together, we will explore practical solutions, share lived experiences, and build the trust and alignment that clinical research needs to thrive.
