NLA Innovation Conference 2026
NLA's half-day conference explores how London's built environment can support the growth of innovation districts and life sciences clusters.
Location: Here East, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London
Date: 18 May 2026, 9am to 1pm
The NLA Innovation Conference 2026 is organised by New London Architecture and takes place at Here East within Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, east London. The half-day event brings together government officials, developers, architects and occupiers to examine the delivery of the spaces needed to sustain the growth of London’s innovation economy.
The programme explores how the built environment can respond to the demands of life sciences campuses and technology clusters, with sessions addressing the planning, procurement and design of laboratory and specialist workspace. Discussions are framed against the ambitions of the London Growth Plan and the UK Government’s Modern Industrial Strategy.
The conference is held within one of London’s established innovation districts, providing immediate physical context to the day’s debates. The event runs from 9am to 1pm and tickets are available through the NLA website.
