Digital Implementation Summit 2026: From Clinical Trials to Clinical Use

Nov 3

Nov 3, 2026

Pfizer Innovation Research Lab · Cambridge, MA · In person

The 9th annual Digital Implementation Summit, From Clinical Trials to Clinical Use: Digital Measures in Clinical Research, returns to Pfizer in Cambridge, MA. It focuses on ways for life sciences to take advantage of new opportunities within digital health and digital measurement, and how these new data can supplement existing collection strategies to drive research forward, getting validated digital measures and digital health tools (DHTs) into the hands of patients, their physicians and caregivers.

The event brings together 30+ speakers and 180+ senior-level pharma, clinical trials, technology and digital health executives to learn how digital health measurement tools are created, validated, scaled and deployed in life sciences to improve data quality and patient experience and accelerate drug development and patient care. For 2026 it is co-created and led by Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine.

2026 core themes:
1. Pathways to Value Creation from Investment in Digital Measures
2. Burgeoning Applications of Digital Measures in Clinical Development: Opportunities around Stratification, Classification & Label Expansion
3. Looking Towards the Future of Integrated Multimodal Biomarkers in Clinical Trials
4. Considerations From Discovery to Development: Managing Expectations, Key Learnings and getting to the Finish Line
