Be where the next laboratory takes shape.
The Lab Design Conference brings together the people who work in laboratories every day with the professionals who plan, design, engineer, build, furnish, and support their environments.
Put your company—and the problems you solve—at the center of those conversations.
Partners
Connect across the laboratory project lifecycle.
Build relationships with the scientists, researchers, laboratory managers, research leaders, and facility professionals who understand what laboratories need—alongside the architects, planners, engineers, project teams, and solution providers responsible for shaping what comes next.
USE & DEFINE → DESIGN → DELIVER → ENABLE
From the people closest to the science to the people responsible for transforming their needs into functioning environments, the Lab Design Conference brings the laboratory project community together.
A community with influence.
42%
of the 2026 conference community held leadership or management roles.
Directors, principals, and management professionals made up more than four in ten professionals represented in 2026—bringing experience leading teams, organizations, projects, and initiatives across the laboratory community.
Get closer to the people closest to the science.
Laboratory end users bring first hand perspective on what laboratories actually need.
Scientists, researchers, laboratory managers, research leaders, and facility professionals understand how laboratory environments perform in practice—where workflows break down, what teams need, which challenges remain unsolved, and where new solutions can make a difference.
The Lab Design Conference creates opportunities for partners to hear those perspectives directly while building relationships with the broader community responsible for planning, designing, building, furnishing, and supporting laboratory environments.
The right people are here. Help them find you.
Introducing the 2027 Innovation Trail.
Attendees come to the exhibit experience with projects, questions, and problems they need to solve.
The Innovation Trail is designed to make the right connections easier.
Every exhibiting partner will align with one solution category, creating simple, color-coded paths that help attendees identify the companies and expertise most relevant to their priorities.
For partners looking to build greater visibility and engagement, enhanced Innovation Trail opportunities create additional ways to stand out. At the highest level, select partners can take part in a Solution Spotlight, creating a dedicated opportunity to introduce their solution and give attendees another reason to continue the conversation.
Don’t just tell attendees what you sell. Show them why they should come find you.
