About the Summit

The Future Health Summit brings together many of the brightest minds in the healthcare sector, attracting an audience of more than 600 senior‑level delegates, including C‑Suite leaders from across the industry. The event features a distinguished line‑up of speakers from Ireland, the USA, the UK, Europe, Asia and beyond, each sharing best practice, innovation, and forward‑thinking insights dedicated to advancing healthcare for patients in Ireland.

The Summit will also host 50 healthcare and associated industry exhibitors, creating a valuable opportunity for networking, partnership building and commercial engagement throughout the event. In 2026, the Summit once again returns to the Dublin Royal Convention Centre, a venue well suited to fostering collaboration and high‑level discussion.

A highlight of the programme is the prestigious Innovation Award. This year, an international field of entrants will be narrowed to eight finalists, each pitching their ideas to the audience and an expert judging panel for the chance to be named the 2026 Innovation Award winner.

The 2026 Future Health Summit will take place at the Dublin Royal Convention Centre on 27–28 May.

2026 will see a number of themed sessions, with the overreaching Summit theme being “From Pressure to Progress: Building a Sustainable Health System for the Next Decade”
