JBI IGNITE 2026: A GLOBAL VIRTUAL EVENT

iGNITE is designed to spark creativity and challenge our thinking about the future of methodology and methods related to the production and use of evidence in healthcare policy and practice.

In 2026, JBI iGNITE will be delivered as a fully online two-day symposium – opening the conversation from Adelaide to the world, and supporting greater accessibility for our global community.

The global evidence ecosystem is evolving at lightning speed and evidence-based healthcare is becoming more sophisticated every day. With advanced technologies such as AI and big data analytics, and the growing emphasis on multidisciplinary, collaborative research approaches, the future of EBHC methodology is transforming and evolving at an unprecedented pace.

Moving towards better evidence, better outcomes and a brighter future for all demands fresh perspectives, novel approaches and unconventional solutions. JBI iGNITE is an opportunity to anticipate what the future might have in store for us and ignite our imagination — bringing our global community together, wherever they are.
