The AACR is excited to present the Fourth AACR Oncology Industry Partnering Event: From Cancer Discoveries to Patients on April 1-2, 2027, in Orlando, immediately prior to the AACR Annual Meeting 2027. Following the success of the last three years, the 2027 event has been expanded to accommodate up to 800 attendees and provide more opportunities for presentations from both major pharmaceutical companies and small-mid size biotechnology companies.
The AACR is known for fostering innovation through translational science – turning clinical observations and early scientific discoveries into actionable insights and patient interventions more efficiently. Hosting the Oncology Industry Partnering Event is an important example of how the AACR is connecting academia, industry, and the business community to accelerate progress with cancer treatments and cures that directly benefit patients globally.
This annual event provides a unique networking experience for attendees to learn from industry leaders who will highlight the oncology pipelines and platforms of both pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies as well as emerging scientific themes across the biopharmaceutical industry. This oncology-focused event will once again feature thought-leaders who will share their innovation strategies for drug development and present analysts and investors new partnership and licensing opportunities to advance these concepts.
This event requires a separate registration from the AACR Annual Meeting 2027 and will be available as an in-person event only. Virtual participation is NOT available for this event. All session participants will present in-person in Orlando and will be available (or their teams) for discussion at the Orlando County Convention Center.
Registration for the AACR Oncology Industry Partnering Event will open in early December 2027 and is separate from registration for the AACR Annual Meeting 2027.
