The foundation of the International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD) dates back to 2008 marking a journey of 18 successful annual gatherings.

The core objective of ATTD is to spotlight pioneering technologies and therapies for diabetes management, fostering collaboration among technology developers, diabetes care professionals, researchers, industries, startups, investors, regulatory bodies, and individuals living with diabetes. Esteemed professionals from around the globe convene to exchange insights and disseminate the latest advancements in the field of diabetes.

Main themes addressed at the conference include decision support systems (Advisors), big data and artificial intelligence for decision support, closed-loop systems, artificial pancreas technology, insulin pumps, glucose sensors (both invasive and non-invasive), screening, intervention and prevention of type 1 diabetes, emerging insulin formulations and medications, novel insulin delivery systems, preventive devices for diabetes, and the integration of informatics into medical services, including telemedicine and software solutions.

Attendees represent a broad spectrum of expertise, from clinicians in the field of diabetes, endocrinology and metabolism, pediatricians and family medicine practitioners as well as academics and technology innovators worldwide.

ATTD drives innovation by hosting the International Fair of New Technologies (TECH FAIR), a key platform for diabetes technology startups to present their novel solutions, advance their development, and build crucial relationships.

Inspired by the achievements of TECH FAIR, ATTD has established the IGNITE forum. This initiative aims to revolutionize diabetes technology and impact patient care by fostering a supportive environment where scientific experts, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and industry leaders can help diabetes technology startups grow and succeed.

ATTD further contributes to the diabetes field by publishing the annual ATTD YEARBOOK. This book features expert reviews and critical evaluations of significant articles on novel diabetes treatments and technologies from top international medical journals, serving as a useful reference for professionals.

Alongside its annual conferences, ATTD provides the Education Portal UNLOK, an online hub for learning and engagement. Users can find e-Posters, webcasts, and abstracts from ATTD events, as well as media content, expert commentary, and medical references. The portal also hosts interactive forums and webinars, maintaining connections between ATTD’s yearly meetings.
