Tactical Trauma Conference 2026
Welcome to the Tactical Trauma conference on November 2-3-4, 2026 in Sundsvall, Sweden, with workshops on November 2.
This is an international conference covering various aspects of working in high-stakes environments, primarily related to pre-hospital trauma and critical care, with a tactical twist.
Our program is rich and diverse, featuring state-of-the-art lectures from world-class speakers. We aim to bring together all organizations working with pre-hospital trauma in tactical/hostile environments, including physicians, HEMS, EMS, police anti-terror units, military, fire and rescue services and more.
Tactical Trauma 2024 was a great success, sold out five months in advance, with over 100 people on the waiting list. Participants came from 18 countries. Like before this is a boutique style conference with only 150 tickets available to facilitate networking and discussions, so be sure to book early!
Our objective is to provide you with the best conference experience possible and in 2026, we will bring you even more international experts and more opportunities to interact with faculty and other participants. For our police and SOF participants there will be dedicated sessions. We hope to spark discussions and networking between individuals, organizations and countries. You will have ample opportunities to do this with international colleagues, industry professionals and faculty during coffee breaks, lunch and social events.
