From late-breaking clinical trials to brand-new program elements, HRX Live 2026 brought a powerful lineup.

Throughout HRX Live, the hallways, lounges and stages buzzed with conversations among partners, colleagues, and key opinion leaders. Inaugural programs like the Late-Breaking Clinical Trials, Simulation Experience, Investor Summit, and meetings with the FDA and NIH, brought a mix of clinical expertise, entrepreneurial vision, and cross-disciplinary collaboration that was unconventional and unforgettable.
