Measuring Patient Engagement Europe Summit

Organizer: Hanson Wade
Date: September 15–17, 2026
Location: London, UK
Website: https://measuring-patient-engagement-europe.com/

Life science organisations are under mounting pressure to prove the value of patient engagement in hard numbers. Regulators demand transparency in reporting, executives expect clear ROI before committing resources, and patients want visible proof their voices are driving decisions, accelerating timelines, and improving outcomes. Yet despite years of progress, a unified, credible framework for measuring impact still doesn’t exist - leaving engagement efforts vulnerable to being dismissed as well-intentioned but non-strategic. The Measuring Patient Engagement Summit Europe is the only forum dedicated to changing that. Over three days, 70 + leaders in Patient Engagement, Advocacy, Affairs, Insights, Experience, Awareness & more will share practical frameworks, benchmark methodologies, and real-world case studies.

Biopharma investing today requires more than backing strong science—it demands a clear understanding of how policy, pricing, and reimbursement will ultimately determine value. Health economics now shapes investment risk and return well before assets reach the clinic. The ISPOR Healthcare Investment Summit 2026 brings together investors, drug developers, policy leaders, and value strategists to learn how products are evaluated, paid for, and adopted in an evolving policy environment. Sessions will highlight real investment challenges, surface practical insights, and strengthen connections between capital and evidence that can inform smarter, more resilient investment decisions.
