Questions
Digital Diagnostics Conference FAQs
Is FutureDx a digital diagnostics conference?
Yes, with a focus. FutureDx is dedicated to infectious disease and molecular diagnostics, so the strongest fit is digital and AI tools applied to that field, including result and image interpretation, resistance prediction, connectivity, and decision support. It is built for digital diagnostics companies that need NHS adoption, and you will meet senior laboratory, diagnostics, and informatics buyers.
When and where is it held?
FutureDx Summit 2026 runs across two days on 27 and 28 October 2026 in London, UK, with a drinks reception on Day 1.
Who will we meet?
150 plus senior diagnostics professionals from across the UK, more than 60% at VP level and above, every one validated as a decision-maker or procurement influencer before they register, including laboratory, microbiology, infection, and informatics leaders.
How does digital fit infectious disease diagnostics?
In many ways. AI reads results and images faster, algorithms flag resistance and risk earlier, connectivity moves results cleanly between systems, and decision support guides the clinician. These are exactly the digital gains the NHS buyers in this room are investing in.
How is this different from your AI in healthcare page?
It is the same event. The AI in healthcare page focuses on artificial intelligence specifically, while this digital diagnostics page covers the wider software, data, and connectivity layer, AI included. You meet the same validated NHS buyers either way.
Why sponsor FutureDx as a digital diagnostics company?
Because digital tools only deliver once labs and clinicians adopt them, and that decision sits with NHS laboratory and informatics leaders. FutureDx puts you in pre-arranged meetings with exactly those buyers, with a return you can measure rather than a stand in a crowd.
What sponsorship and exhibitor options are available?
Options range from exhibiting to headline sponsorship, plus a standalone 1:1 Meetings programme. Each package includes a set number of pre-arranged meetings with validated buyers. Request the sponsor and exhibitor pack for the full breakdown and pricing.
It is the inaugural edition. Is it worth sponsoring?
The room is capped and validated, and your spend is tied to confirmed meetings rather than the gamble of footfall, which keeps it low-risk. Sponsoring the first edition also gives you first-mover visibility with the UK diagnostics community.
