Once annually in October, SNOMED International and an individual Member country work together to hold an internationally-attended SNOMED CT event. The event consists of a four-day Business Meeting and a two-day SNOMED CT Expo, supplemented with regional and culturally focused social activities.
With a confirmed vibrant European schedule planned throughout 2025 and April 2026, and with the Americas unable to host, the AsiaPac and Middle East regions are being called on to express interest in hosting the October 2026 Business Meetings and SNOMED CT Expo, partnered with SNOMED International.
