PROGRAM AT A GLANCE

Designed for decision-makers, not spectators

The 2026 program is intentionally designed to deliver relevance, visibility, and real-world impact for sponsors and attendees alike:

  • 2 Plenary Sessions: positioning Ontario’s prevention outcomes challenge within current regulatory and employer realities
  • Panel Discussions: bringing together research leaders, policymakers, and employers to explore implementation pathways, including Bill 30, COR, and ISO frameworks
  • 6 Breakout Sessions: focused on adoption, system alignment, and overcoming barriers to putting evidence into practice
  • Research Gallery: creating dialogues that surface emerging evidence through interactive discussion, not traditional lectures
  • Networking Opportunities: breakfast, lunch, coffee breaks and a VIP reception to connect decision-makers across public, private, & academic sectors 

Program and speaker announcements begin February 2026.
