2026 HFA European Congress Flash Report
Here are a few highlights from the event in London.
Under the theme “One Vision, One Voice,” industry leaders from Europe and beyond gathered at the 2026 HFA European Congress, September 24–26, to share strategy, research, and opportunities to work together to grow the global industry.
Produced in partnership with ukactive and hosted locally by EVOLVE founder David Minton, the Congress offered numerous sessions and panels devoted to cutting-edge research into such varied topics as AI, GLP-1 medications, member retention, and other issues top of mind among top European operators.
Here are a few visual highlights. Next month, HFB will publish a more detailed report on the Congress, including a look at the tours of facilities in Canary Wharf and London City that concluded the event.
