By uniting for this annual forum, the partners will create a powerful platform for knowledge exchange, innovation, problem solving, and collaborative action in the fight against doping in sport, with a strong emphasis on practical implementation and operational solutions in full compliance with the World Anti-Doping Code and the World Anti-Doping Agency’s (WADA) International Standards. The forum complements other industry events in its focus on the implementation and operational delivery of anti-doping programs.
The mission of Clean Sport in Action is to strengthen the fight against doping and protect athletes through collaboration, innovation, and the exchange of best practices. The event will spotlight strategic anti-doping initiatives and showcase the latest advancements in testing technologies and laboratory practices. Clean Sport in Action also aims to support athletes by providing a platform to onboard their preoccupations. Attendees will engage in interactive workshops, connect with global experts, and help shape the future of clean sport. Participants will explore how to optimise operational efficiency and save costs without compromising quality.
Clean Sport in Action is a key event for a wide range of professionals and organisations involved in the operational management and delivery of anti-doping and testing programs. The forum welcomes managers and operational staff from National and Regional Anti-Doping Organisations (NADOs and RADOs), as well as laboratory directors and their teams. It is equally relevant for staff from international and continental sport federations, integrity units of international federations, and experts involved in regulatory and compliance matters, notably operational managers from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
National Olympic Committees (NOCs) involved in delivering clean sport programs, major games organisers, and e-sport publishers with anti-doping responsibilities will also find valuable insights and networking opportunities. The event is equally designed for sample collection managers, operational leads, and manufacturers of anti-doping and laboratory equipment. In addition, students, researchers, educators, and members of the media with an interest in the fight against doping in sport are encouraged to attend and contribute to the dialogue.
The event will highlight practical solutions to operational challenges and showcase cutting-edge innovations designed to enhance compliance, reduce costs, and increase efficiency. It is also a chance to engage in open dialogue about the day-to-day realities of delivering anti-doping programs and to collaborate on solutions that meet the evolving needs of the global sporting community.
By joining the Clean Sport in Action community, participants will play a key role in developing actionable strategies to strengthen the global anti-doping testing system. The forum aims to foster improved collaboration and operational efficiency among anti-doping organisations, while encouraging the identification and adoption of innovative solutions.
The full program and speaker lineup will be announced over the coming months. In the meantime, those involved in the operational delivery of anti-doping programs are encouraged to sign up to receive updates and be the first to know when tickets are launched.
The venue for the event will be the EHL Hospitality & Business School, Lausanne.
