RESPIRATORY INNOVATION SUMMIT

HYATT REGENCY ORLANDO
9801 INTERNATIONAL DRIVE, ORLANDO, FL 32819

Hosted by the American Thoracic Society, the 2026 Respiratory Innovation Summit will unite the innovators, investors, clinicians and advocacy groups who are leading the charge to create powerful new treatments for deadly and crippling diseases of the lungs and airways. This meeting historically attracts 400+ global leaders representing all facets of the respiratory industry, including representatives from start-ups, business development, venture capital, government, academia and clinical medicine.

All companies innovating in pulmonary, critical care or sleep are encouraged to apply. All applications will be reviewed. The 2025 event featured 80 companies, 25 of which were selected for oral presentation. The agenda also includes venture capital panel, business development panel, and plenty of time for networking. For questions or to learn more, please email Dustin Bell at dbell@thoracic.org.

The ATS International Conference is the home of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep professionals, from those in the earliest stages of their careers to those whose research or strides in clinical care has gained them international recognition. Each year, nearly 14,000 of these professionals choose to attend, present, and learn about the latest advances, meet with colleagues from around the world, and strike new collaborations. It is truly where today’s science meets tomorrow’s care. The International Conference is also multidisciplinary. Clinicians and researchers in many other fields attend the conference, thereby enriching conversations that lead to insights that ultimately improve patient care. Equally important, the ATS International Conference gathers the entire health care team in one place to share ideas across these medical and scientific disciplines. It is the ideal place for registered nurses, advanced practice nurses, respiratory therapists, and hospitalists to discuss their experiences, challenges, and research so that all can learn about the latest advances in understanding pulmonary disease, critical illness, and sleep disorders. And of course, the International Conference is truly international: 40 percent of attendees arrive from laboratories and patient care centers beyond the United States.

Every year the AAAR annual conference provides us with an opportunity to showcase our latest research in aerosol science and technology and to connect with friends and colleagues throughout the event. This year we have an exciting and diverse array of Plenary Lectures, Special Symposia, Poster Sessions, Oral Platform Sessions, Tutorials, and Special Events that will take place from Monday through Friday.

Tutorial are covering a diverse range of aerosol science topics, incorporating both new subjects, such as Grant Writing, and established favorites. The mornings of Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday will kick off the conference with 8AM Plenary Lectures and conclude with our Friday Plenary Lecture. The lineup includes brilliant speakers covering wide range of aerosol science.

The technical program will showcase parallel Platform and Poster Sessions thoughtfully curated by our Working Group Chairs and Vice Chairs. We are organizing Special Symposia aimed at fostering cross-disciplinary interaction and bridging multiple areas.

These sessions will focus on the following topics (to be confirmed):

1. Bioaerosols in Agriculture: Sources, Risks and Mitigation
2. Chemicals of Emerging Concern in Aerosol: Sources, Transformations, and Impacts  
3. Planetary Aerosols: From Earth to Exoplanets  
4. Indoor Air Purification Technologies, Best Practices, and their Health Impacts (
5. Coast to Coast Campaigns on Aerosols, Clouds, Chemistry, and Air Quality

RESCON Europe 2026 will take place in the beautiful city of Porto, Portugal, on November 10–11, 2026. This leading event unites innovators and decision-makers in respiratory drug delivery and connected inhalation devices to advance the next generation of patient-centric therapies.
Our 2026 agenda will explore cutting-edge themes such as innovations in inhaled formulations—including small molecules, biologics, LNPs, and mRNA strategies—smart inhalers with integrated connectivity, and advanced particle engineering for optimized delivery. We will address sustainable, low-GWP propellants, recyclable materials, and analytical challenges ensuring safety and long shelf-life.
Attendees will also examine scalable manufacturing solutions, regulatory strategies for combination products, clinical trial design with real-world evidence integration, and market access pathways in a value-driven healthcare environment.
