Advanced Lateral Flow Conference 2025 Now Accepting Speaker Applications

Call for Experts to Share Practical Insights and Strategic Lessons at the Premier LFA Industry Event

LA JOLLA, Calif., April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Advanced Lateral Flow Conference (ALFC) is now accepting speaker applications for its 2025 program, taking place October 14-15, 2025, at the Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines. ALFC is the leading global event for rapid diagnostics professionals, from funders, regulatory leaders, and commercial strategists, to scientists, engineers, and founders.

ALFC 2025 invites proposals for podium presentations that offer practical value to today's diagnostics decision-makers. This year's theme, Catalyzing Growth: Tech Advancements, Funding, and Regulatory Roadmaps in LFA, highlights the reality that scaling a diagnostic isn't about luck—it's about making the right strategic decisions across funding, technology, regulation, and go-to-market planning.

Podium presenters will have 30 minutes (20 minutes for the talk + 10 for Q&A) to share lessons, data, or strategies that help peers accelerate their own programs. This could include product development insights, market access experience, platform innovations, regulatory approaches, or real-world implementation outcomes.

Applicants can also be considered for breakfast and lunch & learn sessions—ideal for more technical or methods-focused content requiring deeper exploration in a smaller, opt-in setting.

Submission categories include:

• Funding & Investment Strategies – Seed through Series B, non-dilutive options, investor expectations
• Commercial Strategy & Market Access – Pricing, business models, buyer alignment
• Product Development & Scale-Up – Design for manufacturing, cost modeling, tech transfer
• Regulatory & Risk Management – US and global frameworks, IVDR, post-market planning
• Emerging Use Cases – Applications in AMR, veterinary, environmental, pharma, and low-resource settings

What We're Looking For: Submissions should clearly state the core idea, insight, or learning your talk will deliver, along with supporting evidence such as data, case outcomes, or performance metrics. We welcome original work across scientific, commercial, or operational domains. Marketing pitches will not be accepted.

Deadline to submit: June 30, 2025
