Year after year, the National Conference of the Italian Association of Clinical Engineers (AIIC) confirms its position as the absolute benchmark for technological innovation in healthcare. Held in the striking and exceptional setting of the OGR (Officine Grandi Riparazioni) in Turin from June 10th to 13th, 2026, the 26th National Conference saw a record participation of over 3,000 professionals.
Throughout the four days of work, the intensive scientific program explored the hottest technological trajectories in the sector, combining traditional sessions with a robust educational offering and major moments celebrating excellence in projects and exhibitions. Across more than 45 scientific sessions, key topics were addressed, including the integration of Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity challenges in healthcare, the state of the art in acquiring major biomedical equipment, and the practical implementation of PNRR (National Recovery and Resilience Plan) initiatives. Significant focus was also dedicated to the new European Medical Device Regulations (MDR/IVDR) and Health Technology Assessment (HTA) models applied to value-based procurement. Finally, a crucial focus centered on the safety of technologies outside the hospital setting, addressing the current strong drive toward local and community healthcare.
In parallel with the discussion panels, the event integrated a vital educational core to support the professional growth of the category. Indeed, two entire days were dedicated to technical and managerial training, offering participants a choice of 12 vertical specialized courses that enabled the awarding of Professional Training Credits (CFP).
The enhancement of clinical research and innovative ideas born “on the ward” or in corporate laboratories took center stage in the official contests of the event:
AIIC Awards: A total of 227 scientific works submitted and displayed as posters, distributed across 13 thematic categories and evaluated by as many specialized juries.
AIIC Award | Companies & Innovation: A contest dedicated to industrial synergy, structured into 6 categories with 56 innovative projects presented.
“30 e Lode al Tuo Stand” Contest: An initiative rewarding the quality and interactivity of the exhibition booths, which registered a very high level of public engagement, collecting over 2,000 total votes.
The award ceremony took place during the gala dinner held within the striking and historic setting of the National Automobile Museum (Museo dell’Auto).
