Independent of seniority measure above
The ImmunoMark Summit UK Edition returns for its second annual instalment, conceptualized and curated by Convolign Business Consulting. Building on the success of a landmark inaugural edition in 2026, the 2027 summit is larger, more ambitious, and shaped directly by the feedback of the community it serves.
As immunotherapies continue to reshape cancer care, from advanced CAR-T and TCR-T cell therapies to next-generation bispecific antibodies and AI-driven drug discovery, the identification and validation of clinically robust biomarkers has never been more central to oncology success.
Hosted in London, one of the world's foremost centres for life sciences innovation and oncology research, ImmunoMark Summit 2027 brings together pharmaceutical and biotech leaders, translational medicine experts, diagnostic developers, clinical researchers, and regulatory authorities from the UK, Europe, and beyond.
Advanced CAR-T, TCR-T and NK cell therapy innovation for solid tumours, pushing beyond the current standard of care with new modalities and combination strategies.
How artificial intelligence and machine learning are transforming biomarker identification, patient stratification, and translational acceleration at scale.
Advances in spatial biology, single-cell technologies, ctDNA and MRD detection enabling dynamic treatment monitoring and earlier clinical intervention.
Navigating EMA, FDA and MHRA approval strategies, CDx co-development timelines, and health economics frameworks for biomarker-driven solutions.
Special sessions closing the gap between bench science and clinical application, with dedicated focus on translational medicine and evolving regulatory frameworks.
A dedicated Day 1 Drinks and Cocktail Reception providing a relaxed atmosphere to strengthen professional relationships and engage with peers informally.

Companies who sponsor ImmunoMark Summit to reach a highly concentrated audience of senior immuno-oncology decision-makers, researchers, and diagnostic innovators.
Logos shown are from London 2026. 2027 sponsors are currently being confirmed. Sponsorship opportunities across all tiers remain open.
ImmunoMark Summit is built as a business development platform, not a knowledge conference. Sponsoring the UK Edition 2027 gives your BD team structured access to 400+ senior decision-makers from top pharma, biopharma, biotech, and diagnostics organisations across the UK and Europe. Every element of the programme, from the pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings to the capped exhibition, is designed to produce pipeline conversations, not passive brand awareness.
Your BD team arrives with a pre-built calendar of structured 1:1 meetings with the most relevant decision-makers at the summit. No cold approaches. No time wasted at the booth.
Share your top 20 specific companies and job titles you want introductions to. Our delegate team prioritises bringing them on board so your most important targets are confirmed in the room.
Sponsors have the flexibility to choose preferred speaking slots and curate presentation topics aligned with the summit themes, maximising relevance for your target audience.
Exhibition participation is capped at only 20 exhibitors. This ensures every sponsor has strong visibility, meaningful footfall, and a quality environment free from overcrowding.
Two dedicated streams — Next-Gen Immuno-Oncology and Biomarkers and Companion Diagnostics — ensure your target audience is in the room for every session, not diluted across a general life sciences programme.
