The conversations at RISE are inspired by the work we lead every day at Healthark — partnering with global life sciences and healthcare organisations to design real-world evidence, clinical research, AI, and innovation strategies that make a difference.
A curated one-day gathering of senior leaders from pharma, healthtech, GCCs, and clinical research. High-impact sessions, meaningful networking, and conversations that matter.
Frontline insights from senior leaders across pharma, healthtech, clinical research, and the GCC ecosystem - all in one day.
One room, many senior delegates. The kind of conversations that don't happen at larger conferences.
Seven disciplines, one stage - from real-world evidence and AI to genomics and GCCs, connecting dots across health science.
Partner with RISE 2026 sponsorship opportunities across both our virtual and live summit – designed to maximise visibility, thought leadership, and engagement with our global audience.
