Designing the AI-Enabled Life Sciences Workforce Summit 2026

Every organization is racing to unlock the potential of AI, but the challenges now are translating pilot project adoption at scale and measuring business value, workforce productivity, operating model transformation, and sustainable competitive advantage. What is clear, however, is that the organizations creating the biggest advantage are acting now. They are reimagining how work gets done, redesigning roles around human-AI collaboration, and building the skills, capabilities, and workforce strategies needed to thrive in an AI-enabled future. This forum shines a light on how leading biopharma organizations are making that transformation a reality.

Featuring leaders from organizations including Genentech, Merck, Sanofi, Novartis, Takeda, Gilead, Vertex, Insmed, and many more, the Designing the AI-Enabled Life Sciences Workforce Summit returns for its second year as the only industry-specific forum dedicated to helping CHROs, strategic HR, workforce strategy, and transformation leaders move from AI ambition to enterprise-wide value creation.

Attend to benchmark with peers, pressure-test your thinking through our unique Discover, Develop, Action format, and leave with practical strategies to redesign work, accelerate adoption at scale, measure ROI, and build a workforce ready for the next era of life sciences innovation.
