The Hong Kong Institute of Allergy (HKIA) Annual Scientific Meeting 2026 marks a significant milestone as the Institute celebrates its 30th Anniversary, commemorating three decades of dedication to advancing allergy care, education, and research. Under the theme "Unity in Diversity: 30 Years of Legacy," the meeting reflects on HKIA's achievements while embracing a future driven by innovation, collaboration, and global engagement.

The 2026 programme will highlight both the Institute's legacy and emerging developments in the field. Through plenary lectures, scientific symposia, and interactive discussions, participants will explore cutting-edge research, translational advances, and practical clinical insights that bridge scientific discovery and patient care. The meeting will also strengthen international collaboration by welcoming experts and partners from around the world, reinforcing HKIA's role as a bridge between East and West in advancing allergy and immunology.

A key focus of the meeting this year is nurturing future leaders through "Meet the Expert" sessions, multidisciplinary case discussions, and knowledge-sharing opportunities. More than a celebration of past achievements, the Annual Scientific Meeting serves as a platform to inspire innovation, foster collaboration, and shape the future of allergy care both regionally and globally.

The remarkable event is scheduled to take place on Sunday, September 6th, 2026, with the day's program running from 9:00 AM to 6:10 PM HKT. All activities and sessions will be hosted at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. If you are interested to join our 30th Anniversary celebration, please register here.
