Pushing the boundaries of cancer policy dialogue in Europe
Join the esteemed European Cancer Forum to explore cancer policy with top minds from Ministries of Health, the European Commission and Parliament, academia, and patient groups. Since 2018, over 700 participants and 90+ esteemed speakers have attended this premier platform dedicated to advancing the conversation on cancer policy in Europe.
In a time when the EU’s policy agenda is shaped by a multitude of external challenges, progress in oncology risks being sidelined.
The 7th edition of the European Cancer Forum (ECF) aims to address this challenge by convening high-level discussions that connect oncology policy with broader EU ambitions for innovation, health security, and long-term sustainability.
Under the theme “Innovation, Security and Sustainability: Shaping the Future of Cancer Care”, the 2025 ECF will bring together leading policymakers, healthcare professionals, industry experts, and patient advocates to reflect and align the future of cancer care and health policy with Europe’s broader security concerns.
