⌖ Barcelona · Novotel Barcelona City

Hosted by RAPS

Explore how AI is being applied to healthcare product regulation at the RAPS AI in Regulatory Conference in Barcelona, taking place 5–6 November 2026. The AI in Regulatory Conference brings the use of artificial intelligence in regulated healthcare environments into focus. Organised by RAPS, the event is designed for people involved in the regulation of medical devices, pharmaceuticals and other healthcare-related products who want to understand AI’s place within this highly specialised field. Held at the Novotel Barcelona City in Barcelona, the conference provides a dedicated setting for examining the intersection of AI and regulatory practice. Its focused remit makes it particularly relevant for professionals considering how emerging technology may affect the oversight, development and regulation of healthcare products. Who is it for? The conference is aimed at the global regulatory community and those whose work intersects with healthcare product regulation. That includes people working with: - Medical devices - Pharmaceuticals - Biologics - Nutritional products - Healthcare and related regulated products - Artificial intelligence applications in regulatory contexts It may be especially useful for regulatory affairs professionals, healthcare product teams and others seeking a sector-specific perspective on AI rather than a general introduction to the technology. The event page does not specify a required level of AI knowledge, so prospective attendees should consult the official programme as further details become available. Why attend? AI raises distinct questions when it is applied in industries where products are closely regulated and can affect health outcomes. This conference offers an opportunity to concentrate on those issues within the context of the healthcare product landscape represented by RAPS. RAPS describes itself as the largest global organisation of and for professionals involved in regulating healthcare and related products. That specialist foundation distinguishes the conference from broader AI events: its emphasis is not AI in the abstract, but AI as it relates to the regulatory work surrounding devices, medicines, biologics and nutritional products.… Register for this event
