Being connected is critical for making progress in rare diseases. Join RAREsummit26, meet, mingle, and make the right connections.

On Wednesday 7 October 2026, we will gather at the Wellcome Genome Campus for our 8th RAREsummit – a flagship CamRARE event gathering 300 great minds in rare diseases to make connections, exchange ideas and openly debate possibilities.

CamRARE's RAREsummit26 welcomes and unites patients, advocates, experts and leaders to address the challenges faced by people affected by rare diseases. By reflecting on progress made, showcasing best practices and new developments, sharing knowledge and experience, and finding ways to work together, the journey towards better diagnosis, treatment and support for patients and their families is smoother and more certain.

RAREsummit26 is where rare disease connections come to life.

Join us in person for a dynamic day of meaningful conversations, spontaneous introductions, and countless opportunities for cross-sector collaboration. Explore our vibrant marketplace of exhibitors and research posters, discover innovative solutions, and take part in interactive workshops designed to spark ideas and action.

Because in rare disease, it’s the connections that create change - and they happen best when we’re together.

Can’t travel? RAREsummit26 is also available as a hybrid event, giving you the flexibility to join key sessions online and be part of the conversation wherever you are.

Be in the room - or join from afar - but don’t miss it.
