The Diabetes UK Professional Conference is the UK’s leading event for connecting with healthcare professionals and researchers driving meaningful change in diabetes care.
By sponsoring or exhibiting, organisations have the chance to position themselves at the heart of this influential gathering, reaching more than 2,400 engaged delegates from every corner of diabetes care. Delegates are genuinely invested. They join to find real ways to improve their practice and make a difference for their patients.
This is more than visibility. It’s an opportunity to demonstrate leadership in the field, contribute to critical conversations and build relationships that matter.
Why get involved?
Reach a fresh audience
Half of delegates are first-time attendees – meaning you gain access to a new and growing community.
Your feedback matters
Your involvement shapes the future of diabetes care. We incorporate previous event feedback to ensure the 2027 edition is a catalyst for change for everyone in the community.
Forge meaningful connections
We’ve created more opportunities to connect directly with delegates in the Exhibition Hall, with an increase in Spotlight theatre sessions.
Interested in being involved with our 2027 conference?
With an estimated 5.8 million people in the UK living with diabetes and 6 million more at risk, there has never been a more important time to get involved.
