Open to all organizations: Both WHS partners and non-partner organizations can host a side meeting. Time slot availability depends on the number of slots reserved by partners. Non-partners receive feedback on their preferred time slots in order of submission; slots are then allocated on a first come, first served basis, accommodating preferences as far as possible.
Your content, your format: You decide the topic and format: workshop, panel discussion, open dialogue. Each session is 90 minutes long. A brief concept must be submitted and approved by WHS before your slot is confirmed.
You manage your meeting: You are responsible for inviting and managing your speakers and participants. You choose whether your meeting is open to all WHS participants, requires registration, or is by invitation only.
Hybrid format is possible: Hybrid meetings, livestreaming, and recording are supported across almost all packages. Simply create your meeting link in Teams or Zoom in advance.
Please note: All speakers and participants must be registered for the World Health Summit 2026. A side meeting registration alone is not sufficient for access.
Seven rooms on the second floor of the InterContinental Berlin are available for 90-minute sessions across all three conference days. Prices vary by organization type and are confirmed upon application. All packages include a contingent of complimentary conference tickets. Additional tickets can be purchased at a discount.
