Academy of Doctors of Audiology Conference 2026 took place October 1–4, 2026.

Academy of Doctors of Audiology Conference 2026 was held at Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, 1300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, MN 55403.

The published audience included audiologists, practitioners, educators, and industry partners.

It is most useful for practicing and practice-owning audiologists, since the speakers were largely audiologists alongside a neurotologist and an attorney, and the sponsors included Phonak, ReSound, WS Audiology and Amplifon, the manufacturers and retail groups these clinicians deal with. Clinicians who work purely in research or hospital settings, and those outside audiology, will find less, as the business and practice-management focus is shown by a student business plan sponsor and an Audiology 2050 Hackathon.

Audiologists at professional conferences typically wear business casual, with slacks, blouses or collared shirts and an occasional blazer. A hotel conference like this in downtown Minneapolis in early October suggested a light layer for cool weather and chilly meeting rooms.
