AI in Oncology by 2030 Strategy Lab

Designing resilient cancer care systems

Shaping the Future of Oncology with AI

EDHEC Business School's Management in Innovative Health Chair is hosting the inaugural AI in Oncology by 2030 Strategy Lab: Designing Resilient Cancer Care Systems on 5 October 2026, on the EDHEC Campus in Paris.

This one-day event, which combines educational plenary sessions and expert-led working groups, will bring together European healthcare leaders, clinicians, data scientists, policymakers, start-ups, and industry representatives to collaboratively design forward-looking, compliant, and resilient cancer care systems powered by artificial intelligence.

Each participant will be assigned to a working group focused on one of two topics and guided by expert session leaders:
  1. European-Scale Data & AI Ecosystem Resilience: Interoperability, Regulation & Cyber-Readiness for Improved Cancer Care
  2. The AI-Ready Oncology Hospital as an Ecosystem: Aligning Clinical Practice, Operations & Data Services for Sustainable Deployment


The key takeaways and concept notes developed by the working groups will become the basis for a white paper to be published following the event.

Clinicians leave with practical, workflow-aware strategies for AI-enabled oncology that strengthen decision support and care coordination.

Data scientists & engineers get clear, real-world requirements to build adoption-ready solutions – data needs, integration constraints, validation approach, and deployment considerations.

Innovation & IT decision-makers gain an implementation blueprint for the long-term to scale AI – operating model, governance, interoperability, cybersecurity, and value logic.

Policy, research, and patient stakeholders shape the trust and evidence foundations for AI systems - responsible use, acceptance, equity, and alignment with emerging European requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Is the event in person or online?

This is a 100% in-person event. We prioritise direct exchanges and networking to facilitate collaboration between participants, which is especially important during the small-group working sessions.

What is the international composition of the audience?

We welcome participants from across Europe and beyond. The event is conducted in English to facilitate international exchanges.

Can I participate in both workshop topics?

No, we ask that each participant at registration rank the topics in order of preference. We will do our best to ensure you are placed in a group for your preferred topic. In order to maintain a balance of efficiency and value within a one-day format, we have opted that participants will remain focused on only one topic.

What is a "strategy lab"?

This programme is designed to go beyond high-level conference roundtables by combining plenary sessions with expert-facilitated working groups on a dedicated topic. Before the event, participants will be provided a clear methodology outline for how to approach the challenge in order to best reach a quality outcome.

We feel this elevates this event above a simple workshop, enabling participants to co-create solutions and actionable strategies.
