The Cracow HTA Symposium, hosted annually by Certara, has become a leading forum for advancing health technology assessment across Central and Eastern Europe. In 2025, the Symposium welcomed a record-breaking audience of over 150 policymakers, HTA leaders, industry experts, clinicians, and patient representatives for two days of high-level dialogue and practical insight.

Discussions focused on the implementation of EU Joint Clinical Assessments (JCAs), evolving national reimbursement frameworks, and strategies for aligning evidence generation with payer expectations. Country-level perspectives from across the region fostered meaningful exchange on shared challenges and collaborative opportunities. The 2025 event also reinforced its patient-centered mission through charitable initiatives supporting rare disease and obesity care.

Join us for the next edition to be part of the conversation shaping the future of HTA, access, and healthcare decision-making in Europe.
