Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes - ATTD

The ATTD conference was founded in 2008 through the initiative of two leading figures in endocrinology research: Professor Moshe Phillip (Israel) and Professor Tadej Battelino (Slovenia). It is held annually in a different European city, usually in the first quarter. Its first edition took place in Prague in 2008, while the 19th edition was held in 2026 in Barcelona. Although the conference does not take place outside Europe, attendees, exhibitors, and speakers are highly international, coming from every continent, particularly North America. Since 2008, the conference has been hosted three times in France, in Paris (2013, 2015, and 2017).

In the mid-2000s, the integration of new technologies into healthcare (digitization, imaging, sensors) accelerated at an unprecedented pace, with diabetes management serving as a major driving force. Affecting millions of people who self-manage their treatment daily based on precise numerical measurements, this field represented a significant market for manufacturers. Rapid return on investment, combined with a genuine improvement in patient quality of life, heavily stimulated the development of sensors and automated devices, simultaneously fueling the growth of digital medicine.

Traditional diabetes conferences focused mainly on pathophysiology and general pharmacology. ATTD was specifically created to address a gap: providing a dedicated space at the intersection of technological innovation and clinical diabetes care, accelerating the translation of technological discoveries into medical practice.

The conference and its scientific program focus on:

• The integration of medical devices (continuous glucose monitors, insulin pumps, smart pens, artificial pancreas).

• Digital medicine, connected health, and artificial intelligence applications dedicated to blood glucose management.

• Networking and scientific collaboration between clinicians, researchers, startups, and major industrial leaders in medical technology.
