Simon Davenport, Global Head of Environments, Emota, an Inizio Engage company 

At this year’s ASCO® congress, the spotlight wasn’t just on science – it was on how the industry engages. Supporting over 30 clients and delivering 185 projects, Inizio witnessed the shift toward smarter, more sustainable congress environments.

Key takeaways included:

  • Oncologists want interactive learning: Engagement is moving beyond slides, with responsive booths, interactive LED walls, and digital-first experiences extending conversations well past the industry’s six-minute average.

  • Smart spaces are here to stay: With heat mapping, AI-powered personalization, and real-time content optimization, booths are evolving into dynamic, intelligent environments that adapt to audience needs.

  • Sustainability as strategy: Inizio’s circularity-first booth design delivered a 70% CO₂e reduction, 70.7% recyclability, and major cost savings – results that earned industry-leading awards and set a benchmark for measurable impact.

In a crowded oncology market, strategy-led storytelling, analytics-driven design, and sustainability-centered innovation are becoming essential to cut through the noise. The future of congress engagement will be intentional, data-informed, and deeply aligned with healthcare professionals’ learning preferences.
