EDGE Conference 2024

bookings are open!

It’s official, the EDGE Conference is back. Bookings opened last month for EVOLVE: Engage. Embrace. Empower. The EDGE 3-focused event, is taking place on the 24th-25th April 2024 at the Vox in Birmingham, England, UK, and will follow the global rollout of EDGE 3. The last event held here was 2019 so we are looking forward to going back at a venue that works really well for us. It’s spacious, modern, and has all the breakout and conference rooms close together, making it nice and easy for delegates to get to the sessions they want to attend. We are extremely excited to be returning next year for our 6th EDGE Conference and are expecting it to be the biggest one yet as the conference grows bigger and bigger year on year.

We are currently going through speaker submissions and working on putting together a draft agenda, but here is a sneak peek on what you can expect from the event. The EVOLVE conference is the opportunity for Users to reunite with other members of the EDGE community for 2 days of training, learning, and skill sharing. Topics will be suited to all types of EDGE Users, including Admin, Users, and those with expert knowledge, as well as those who are just getting started! The conference programme will provide sessions for all types of research departments, including R&D and support departments such as Pharmacy and Clinical teams.

User-led sessions will encourage learning and development of EDGE knowledge as experiences and best practice is shared, including tips and tricks for using different functionalities of EDGE 3, such as finance, reports, and workflows (just to name a few). You can also expect to hear from an array of inspiring healthcare and research keynote speakers from across the field, as well as receiving an EDGE 3 update from the team here at CIRU.

The aim of EVOLVE is for Users to Engage and Embrace the new version of EDGE and leave feeling ready to Empower their new skills and knowledge learnt!

We welcome Users to attend from across the globe and encourage non-EDGE subscribers to join us, as it is a great opportunity to see how EDGE can benefit your research world. Ready to sign up? Find out more here.
