DIAH Conference 2026

DIAH 2026 brings together up to 200 delegates from academia, research, start-ups, and industry to accelerate innovation in animal health. The event focuses on collaboration, early-stage development, tailored networking, and supporting researchers through insights, pitching, and one-to-one meetings.

The Discovery to Innovation in Animal Health (DIAH) Conference returns in 2026 with a clear mission: to bridge the gap between early-stage research and industry uptake in the animal health sector. Designed for a focused audience of up to 200 delegates, the event fosters meaningful dialogue and co-development between academia, research organisations, start-ups, and established companies.
