“What an incredible lineup of speakers. Thank you for the well-organized machinery that allowed us opportunities to arrange meetings. Thank you for the opportunity to present on the vitally important topic of transition of care.”
“NEMSN’s Board thanks you very kindly for your scholarship to our organization to attend the 2020 Rare Summit. I was able to watch a little in person and then I was able to access NORD’s session files. NEMSN’s Board had picked out six of them as particularly relevant to us. We send our appreciation!”
“It was a fantastic conference and well organized; I have only heard positive comments! People loved the speakers, the timely topics, the exhibit “hall”, and networking opportunities. The virtual approach can’t replace in-person conversations, but can reach people and enable important connections. Thank you to all the folks at NORD for your remarkable efforts to make this such a success.”
On October 17 and 18, the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD®) hosted the Rare Diseases and Orphan Products Breakthrough Summit. Over 830 enthusiastic attendees from across the globe convened to address and take action on the opportunities and challenges facing the rare disease community. Featuring content on the most critical rare issues – including accelerated approval, newborn screening, equitable access to care – the 2022 NORD Summit was host to a week of conversations and collaborations in the global community.
