JOIN US AT THE 2026 ANNUAL LICENSING SEMINAR 

NARA is hosting the 2026 Annual Licensing Seminar as a hybrid event, including both
an in-person component in Palm Springs, CA and a virtual component, which features
access to pre-recorded and live-streamed sessions, including one (1) live session in
each time block and all keynote presentations.

All attendees will have access to recorded sessions for approximately three (3) months
post Seminar. This year's theme, “Golden Standards: 50 Years of Regulatory
Excellence,” celebrates NARA’s strong foundation and sustained commitment to
shaping the future of regulatory excellence. We invite you to join us in Palm Springs or
online as we honor five decades of impact and look ahead with dynamic sessions,
expert insights, and collaborative networking that define the future of regulation.
