The Schedule-at-a-Glance, featuring a general day-by-day flow of activities, can be found today on the GHX Summit home page. In early 2027, the preliminary agenda will be published showing a list of confirmed sessions to date (session title, abstract and speaker name). As more sessions are confirmed, they will be added to the list. About one month prior to the event, the preliminary agenda will be replaced with the detailed agenda, a comprehensive final agenda that includes session times and room locations.  
   
Registrants will receive an email notification when the initial preliminary agenda is published, when the detailed agenda is published, and when other significant announcements warrant. The agenda is subject to change at any point before or during the GHX Summit.
