Leader of Tomorrow
The Leader of Tomorrow programme is dedicated to students and young professionals willing to get out of their comfort zone and daily routine.
After LOT is a unique experience tailored for students, recent graduates, and early-career professionals who are passionate about shaping the future of healthcare. Through a curated mix of learning, networking, and mentorship, participants gain insights into the industry, explore diverse career paths, and build lasting connections.
What to Expect?
The LOT experience is structured to offer both inspiration and practical value. Here's what you can look forward to:
Morning Soft-Skills Training
We’re continuing one of the most appreciated elements of the LOT experience — a dedicated soft-skills training session. This interactive workshop is designed to help you build confidence, improve communication, and strengthen your professional toolkit.
The final format is still being shaped, so stay tuned for more exciting details!
Capture the Moment
Professional photography will be available throughout the morning – perfect for sharing on LinkedIn (#LOT26 #DIAEurope2026) or keeping as a memorable highlight of your participation
What’s New in 2026?
In the previous edition, participants had the opportunity to visit industry sites. This year, we’re bringing the experience to you!
Due to the location of DIA Europe 2026, we’re introducing a new and engaging networking activity where participants will meet and interact directly with professionals from across the healthcare ecosystem, including regulators, industry leaders, and other key stakeholders. This interactive session will offer:
- First-hand insights into diverse career paths
- Opportunities to connect with experts in an informal setting
- A dynamic and fun environment to explore the future of healthcare careers
This new format ensures that participants still gain valuable exposure to the field, just in a more accessible and interactive way.
Attendance for Leader of Tomorrow sessions is mandatory for the participants registered.
