Questions
Sponsorship Questions, Answered
What sponsorship packages are available?
FutureDx Summit offers six routes to sponsor: Headline (one exclusive slot), Platinum, Gold, Silver, Exhibitor, and an Exclusive 1:1 Meetings package. The Headline tier is the most visible, with exclusive Powered By branding, a 30 minute keynote plus the opening welcome address, 15 pre-arranged 1:1 meetings, premium exhibition space, and hosting rights for the drinks reception. Every package is priced on request and can be tailored to your commercial goals.
Who attends, and how senior are they?
FutureDx Summit is built for 150+ senior professionals, with more than 60% at VP level and above. The room is made up of Lab Directors, Consultant Microbiologists, POCT Coordinators, Infectious Disease Consultants, NHS procurement and diagnostics leads, and clinical scientists, drawn from NHS trusts, clinical labs, public health bodies, biotech, and academia. The delegate list is curated, so you are meeting decision-makers and direct procurement influencers rather than junior attendees.
How does Headline Sponsorship generate qualified leads?
You receive 15 pre-arranged 1:1 meetings with prospects you select, confirmed before the event begins, so your team walks in with a full diary rather than chasing badges. You also receive the full delegate list with curated introductions, plus two days of repeated face time that builds the trust NHS procurement decisions depend on. For most sponsors this delivers more qualified conversations in two days than a field rep books in a quarter.
What branding and visibility do we get?
As the single Headline Sponsor you take exclusive Powered By branding across the website, the stage, the brochure, the on-site signage, and the opening keynote. Your logo leads every piece of event marketing before, during, and after the summit. Because the tier is exclusive, your brand is never shown next to a competitor at the same level.
Can we speak on the programme?
Yes. The Headline package includes a 30 minute keynote with Q and A in the main programme, plus a 5 minute welcome address that opens the summit. This is the most prominent speaking position available, and only the Headline Sponsor receives the welcome address. You can use the slot to present clinical data, a platform, or a point of view to the full room of senior delegates.
What ROI can we expect, and how is it measured?
FutureDx is structured so that ROI is measurable rather than assumed. Your return is a set of named, confirmed 1:1 meetings, scheduled before you spend a day on site, which makes cost per qualified meeting easy to calculate against field sales, trade shows, and outbound. Sponsors typically compare the package against the cost of reaching the same NHS Lab Directors and Consultant Microbiologists through any other channel, where access is slow, gated, and hard to measure.
What networking access is included?
You host the drinks reception, which is the most memorable part of the event, and your team has full access to the drinks reception on Day 1. Alongside the 15 pre-arranged 1:1 meetings, you have two days of informal access to the full delegate audience in a deliberately small setting designed for senior commercial conversation.
Can the package be customised to our goals?
Yes. The Headline package is a strong default, but it can be adjusted to fit your objectives, your target delegate profile, and your budget. Tell us what a successful event looks like for your team and we will shape the meetings, speaking, and branding around it.
What do we receive after the event?
You keep the full delegate list with names, titles, and organisations for structured follow-up, along with the curated introductions made during the summit. That means the relationships you start in the room have a clear path to continue into your pipeline after the doors close.
Is our company a good fit to sponsor?
If you sell into NHS diagnostic labs or clinical settings, FutureDx is built for you. The strongest fit is IVD and diagnostics platforms, molecular diagnostics and PCR, genomics and sequencing, AI and digital health, pharma and biotech with AMR or infectious disease pipelines, lab automation and reagents, and CROs and lab services. If your buyers are Lab Directors, Consultant Microbiologists, or POCT Coordinators, this is the room.
When and where is FutureDx Summit 2026 held?
FutureDx Summit 2026 runs across two days on 27 and 28 October 2026 in London, UK, with a drinks reception on Day 1. The Headline tier is a single exclusive slot, so it is secured on a first-come basis.
