FAACT Allergy Summit

FAACT's Allergy Summit

Oak Brook, Illinois
October 22-24, 2026

Community engagement, support, and outreach are critical for people managing food allergies, asthma, eosinophilic disorders (EGIDs), FPIES, Celiac disease, mast cell and systemic mastocytosis (SM), Alpha-Gal Syndrome, and related conditions. This unique summit unites EVERYONE—patients, advocates, healtcare professionals, and companies that support allergy living, management, and safety—at ONE event!

Who should attend?

This Summit is for EVERYONE!

With dual tracks focused on disease management and social media awareness, attendees have the chance to:

• Learn from experts, which can later be applied and shared on your social platforms, support groups, within your communities, or simply with your loved ones.
• Improving your digital/social media outreach with information straight from the experts, that makes your voices stronger for brands.
• Learn about the latest in allergy diagnostics, biologics, research, and more.
• Hands-on workshops for analytics, video, working with brands, and more.
• Connect, share, and learn with other amazing partners and advocates.

Our ultimate goal and mission of this in-person only Summit is to bring everyone together and to form lasting new connections – empowering, learning, teaching, and sharing with one another that benefit everyone involved. 

We will host the Welcome Company Expo on Thursday evening and sessions on Friday and Saturday with breakfast, lunch, and dinner provided both days.
