Who Went to Discovery on Target 2026

When and where was Discovery on Target 2026?

Discovery on Target 2026 ran September 28 – October 1, 2026, at the Sheraton Boston Hotel in Boston, MA.

What conference is this?

Discovery on Target is an annual drug discovery meeting, held September 28 – October 1, 2026 at the Sheraton Boston Hotel. It brings together target biologists, medicinal chemists and discovery leaders from pharma, biotech and academia with the CROs, chemistry, screening, reagent, instrument and software companies that serve them, across programs on emerging targets, novel modalities, lead generation, discovery technologies, induced proximity, antibodies against challenging targets, conjugates, radioligand therapies and AI-driven drug design. The meeting has ended; this guide is its record.

What is in this guide?

Every organization we can place at Discovery on Target 2026: 294 speakers from the public agenda (305 talks, panels, roundtables and sponsored presentations) rolled up to their companies and institutions, the 67 exhibitors from the floor plan with their booth numbers, 58 sponsors with their level, and the 506 companies on the attendee list the organizers published — 510 organizations in one list. Speakers appear as job titles, never by name, and nothing about an individual attendee is shown.

How are organizations typed?

By the role an organization plays in drug discovery: drug developers (large pharma and biotech), then the companies around them — CROs and CDMOs, instrument and lab automation makers, reagent, assay and model-system suppliers, software and AI companies, and consultancies and other services — and academic, government and non-profit bodies. The topic filters come from the program a talk sits in.
