The Festival of Genomics & Biodata

In the AI era, meeting and learning from people in-person has never been more important. The real magic happens when everyone comes together, and there is nowhere better than the UK's largest Life Sciences event - The Festival of Genomics & Biodata to help you learn, network, discover and make better decisions that end up impacting the lives of patients.

The most valuable two days you’ll spend all year

Practical learning you can use immediately
310+ speakers share real case studies, real workflows and real implementation lessons, not theory, hype or product pitches. Learn how genomics, biodata, AI and diagnostics are being applied in practice across research, healthcare and industry.

Focused content across the full innovation pipeline
16 theatres covering advanced therapies, biodata, AI, diagnostics, drug discovery, multi-omics, genomics, plant genomics, precision medicine, spatial biology, single-cell analysis and more. Follow the journey from discovery to application and understand what’s working, what’s emerging and what comes next.

A community built around collaboration
Connect with 8300+ registrants from research, healthcare, pharma, biotech, technology/ solution provider companies, start-ups and patient organisations. Find collaborators, share challenges and build relationships that move your work forward.

Intelligence that helps you make better decisions
Go beyond the latest technologies to understand where genomics, biodata and AI are delivering real value and where challenges remain. Learn from leading organisations about what they are implementing, what they have learned and how innovation is translating into scientific, clinical and commercial impact.

Designed around what actually works
Every speaker is asked to share practical experience, including successes, failures and actionable takeaways you can apply in your own work. The programme is case-study led, interdisciplinary and focused on evidence, implementation and real-world impact.

A vibrant exhibition floor
Explore the exhibition floor for the latest technology and solutions to help you advance your work. Catch up with your existing suppliers and partners or source new ones.

The Festival of Genomics & Biodata takes place at ExCeL London, 27–28 Jan 2027. If you are exhibiting, we design, build and install custom exhibition stands here. Over a show of this length, the stands that perform are the ones where the layout was decided before the visuals.

ExCeL's halls are open-plan and long, so a stand competes for attention across real distance. Height limits vary by hall, typically between four and six metres, and rigging, electrics and flooring must go through the venue's approved contractors. Loading runs via the east and west entrances on timed slots.

A full build covers design, manufacture, transport, installation, on-site management and dismantle, along with the RAMS, structural sign-off and contractor coordination the venue requires. You do not need to wait for a callback to find out what it costs — enter your stand dimensions in our online builder for an instant estimate.
