We’re excited to welcome our partners in healthcare to Hanger LIVE 2027 in Grapevine, TX for a one-year-only summer event July 26-28, 2027. This year’s theme, Blazing the Trail, expresses Hanger’s commitment to advancing patient care through innovation, clinical expertise, and the shared work of creating a better path forward for patients.
Hanger LIVE has always brought together one of the largest communities of clinicians and influential leaders in the profession. In 2027, we are introducing a new approach to partnership designed for the way clinical education, innovation, and connection are evolving. Moving beyond the traditional exhibit hall, we’re creating a connected, relationship-driven experience where partners can engage more meaningfully with the people shaping patient care.
This new model integrates partners into the experience while clinicians are learning, asking questions, exploring solutions, and connecting with one another, giving your organization the opportunity to:
Move Patient Care Forward.
Help clinicians move from awareness to adoption by connecting your solutions to real patient needs, stronger outcomes, and meaningful change in care.
Gain Unprecedented Access.
Engage clinicians, leaders, and decision-makers beyond limited exhibit hours through CE-integrated experiences, immersive activations, networking, and signature events designed for deeper connections.
Elevate Thought Leadership.
Show your expertise in context through educational activations that demonstrate clinical application, problem-solving, and relevance to everyday practice.
Invest in Impact.
Shift your investment from booth builds to meaningful engagement. Hanger handles the environment, infrastructure, and support, so your team can focus on impactful content, authentic conversations, and demonstrating clinical value.

Activation Opportunities
Hanger LIVE activations are designed to turn interest into interaction. Each curated experience gives partners a meaningful way to educate, demonstrate, collaborate, and engage with clinicians.
A simulated patient appointment becomes an interactive learning experience led by your clinical expert and integrated into our educational tracks. Demonstrate best practices and work through clinical decisions in real time, giving clinicians a direct view into how your solutions support care.
Invite clinicians to tackle a real-world challenge alongside your organization in a highly interactive, small-group problem-solving experience. This format positions your team as a thought partner and trusted resource in addressing practical clinical, operational, or practice-based challenges.
Bring the lived patient experience to life through immersive digital storytelling. Attendees can explore key milestones, outcomes, and moments of transformation, connecting your organization’s work to the human impact of care.
Transform the lunch experience into a live demonstration space where attendees can stop, watch, ask questions, and engage as your team creates, assembles, aligns, programs, or demonstrates products and expertise in real time.
Organize solutions around patient needs rather than traditional exhibit booths, allowing clinicians to explore featured technologies, products, and services through a more intuitive, patient centered lens.
Put early-stage innovation in front of Hanger clinical leaders for candid, real-time feedback before commercialization or launch. This closed-door session helps refine ideas, validate relevance, and identify barriers to adoption.
Lead small-group conversations around emerging trends, clinical challenges, innovative ideas, or Ask Me Anything topics that invite engaging dialogue with attendees.
Create a lasting brand impression through a vibrant, festival-style evening, featuring food, entertainment and meaningful opportunities to connect.
Join Hanger leaders, clinicians, and decision-makers for a signature evening of unique entertainment and delicious food, when we recognize leadership, innovation, and collaboration across the O&P profession.
Extend the reach of your sponsorship beyond the live event through advertising placements that keep your brand visible to all Hanger employees joining virtually.
Gain focused time with Hanger leadership and strategic sourcing partners to discuss business priorities, industry trends, partnership opportunities, and future collaboration.
Extend your impact beyond the live experience with dedicated clinical content emailed directly to the clinician audience before or after Hanger LIVE.
Maximize your brand’s visibility and engagement with customizable sponsorship opportunities tailored to your goals. Options include meal and break sponsorships, badge lanyards, hotel key cards, charging stations, strategic signage placements throughout the event, and more—providing valuable opportunities to connect with attendees and elevate your brand presence.
