2026 Leadership Summit
April 20-22, 2026 | Phoenix, AZ
Join a community of innovators and leaders at Lab Manager’s 6th annual Leadership Summit. Designed to help lab professionals elevate their leadership skills, this event combines hands-on workshops, expert speaker sessions, and networking opportunities to provide attendees with actionable strategies for success.
Annual event for lab managers and directors focused on team and operational excellence
Expert-led sessions, workshops, and roundtables on leadership, safety, quality, and lab management
High-value networking and lead generation through direct engagement with decision-makers
I gained quite a few sales leads … which is something you don’t normally get from tradeshows.
The topics were great, and the opportunities you built into the agenda to network with not only the attendees but other vendors was great.
A well planned event that offered ample opportunity to mingle with prospective end-users.
