Annual Meeting

Connecting Europe's cancer centre community.

The Annual Meeting of EUnetCCC is a yearly event organised under the Joint Action to present key developments, share progress made by the network, and foster strategic dialogue among all partners and stakeholders. Each edition serves as a forum to assess achievements, identify challenges, and guide the next phase of the network’s implementation.

The first Annual Meeting of EUnetCCC took place in November 2025 at the CNIT Forest, Paris-La Défense, marking the official launch of the European Network of Comprehensive Cancer Centres and a pivotal milestone in the implementation of the Joint Action.

The Annual Meeting brings together a broad range of stakeholders from across the European cancer ecosystem, including representatives of Comprehensive Cancer Centres (CCC), hospitals and hospital networks, clinicians, researchers and scientific experts, national authorities and policymakers, European institutions and agencies, EU-funded initiatives and projects, patient organisations and representatives, professional societies, NGOs, international experts, partners and industry representatives. It will provide a collaborative forum to assess progress, align priorities and collectively shape the next implementation steps of the network.

As a flagship initiative under Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan (EBCP), EUnetCCC is strengthening the quality, integration and coordination of cancer care across the European Union.

Programme and format

The Annual Meeting takes place in person over two full days and features high-level opening and plenary sessions, a scientific keynote session, expert panels, case studies, interactive parallel discussions, and exhibition areas, providing a platform for dialogue between science, practice, and policy.

Participation is free of charge.
