July 16, 2026 |
Following ASCO® 2026, Inizio’s experts have shared their perspectives across three thought leadership articles, each exploring a different aspect of what this year’s congress revealed for pharmaceutical organisations. Together, they examine the evolving role of congresses, from experience design and technology to strategy, measurement and commercial impact.

Simon Davenport, Global Head of Environments at Inizio Engage, explores the characteristics that set the most successful congress experiences apart. Drawing on observations from the exhibition floor, the article highlights three key principles: creating a clear and consistent scientific narrative, designing interactions that genuinely enhance engagement rather than relying on technology for its own sake, and building flexible experiences that allow HCPs to engage at different levels. The article explains why thoughtful experience design is becoming increasingly important as congress environments grow more competitive.
