Overview

Microbiologists are leading on innovations against AMR. The Knocking Out AMR project is dedicated to supporting microbiologists across the world by encouraging cross-disciplinary collaboration through events, professional development, resources and more.  

This free event is suitable for anyone working in product innovation in AMR, from spin-out companies to established businesses, and is open to members and non-members. Set up as a networking event, you can expect scheduled meetings, networking opportunities and informative sessions from businesses at all scales, funders, regulators and other AMR-relevant collaborators.

Please note this event is separate from Annual Conference 2026, but is hosted in the same venue (ICC Belfast) before the main sessions start. You do not need to be attending Annual Conference to attend. Registration for this event does not provide access to the main Annual Conference area.
