Clinical Lab and Pathology Leaders Will Meet in New Orleans for the 30th Executive War College

AUSTIN, Texas (October 16, 2024) – Clinical laboratory and pathology executives from many of the nation’s most-prominent clinical labs will come together on April 28-30, 2025 in New Orleans, LA, to celebrate the 30th anniversary the Executive War College on Diagnostics and Pathology Management, the world’s largest management conference for diagnostics professionals. 

 

Each year, these clinical lab leaders come together to learn about the latest changes in regulation (including CLIA), advances in key diagnostic and digital technologies for increasing revenue, lowering costs, and improving patient care. After three straight years of record attendance, organizers of the 30th version of this event expect their largest crowd ever when the Executive War College once again takes place at the Hyatt New Orleans.

 

“With so many changes continuing to affect our clinical lab industry, and this being our 30th year celebration, we are anticipating this will be an even more eventful gathering this time around with our largest attendance ever,” said Robert L. Michel, Editor-in-Chief of The Dark Report and founder of the Executive War College. “The best place to learn about how innovative labs are taking advantage of new technologies in their daily operations is this year’s Executive War College.”

 

“Every clinical lab organization should have their managers and best strategic thinkers attend the Executive War College,” Michel added. “This is the time and place for them to learn from the diagnostic profession’s best innovators and gain insights they’ll need to keep their laboratories at the cutting edge of clinical excellence in a financially sustainable manner.”

 

Almost 100 sessions will cover the full range of important new developments in lab management, and Michel is at the early stages of creating what he expects will be yet another comprehensive learning experience for clinical lab and pathology leaders. As has been the case over the 29 previous Executive War Colleges, this is also THE place to do business for those companies that serve the industry with their assays, leading edge equipment and other technologies. 

 

In addition to the comprehensive two-day program, there will be additional post-conference workshops on a third day (for an additional tuition) to be announced. Visit www.executivewarcollege.com for more information, including information on how to save money by registering right now. More details on the agenda will emerge toward the end of 2024, but since a sellout is anticipated for the 30th anniversary of Executive War College, those planning to attend are encouraged to register early for what will be the most-anticipated lab management event to 2025.
