Healthcare technology management (HTM) professionals from across the Upper Midwest are invited to register for the 2026 North Central Biomedical Association (NCBA) Annual Conference, scheduled for Sept. 9-11 at Madden’s Resort on Gull Lake in Brainerd, Minnesota. Attendees are encouraged to arrive Sept. 8 for conference activities.
The annual event brings together biomedical equipment technicians, clinical engineers, students, healthcare technology leaders and industry partners for several days of continuing education, networking and hands-on interaction with exhibitors serving the HTM community. Educational sessions, a vendor show and social networking opportunities are planned throughout the conference, providing attendees with valuable opportunities to expand their technical knowledge and connect with peers from Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa.
NCBA also will continue its longstanding commitment to workforce development by awarding two $500 scholarships to eligible HTM students during the conference business meeting. The scholarships are intended to support the next generation of biomedical professionals entering the field.
Conference registration is now open for members, students and vendors. The event will be held at Madden’s Resort, located at 11266 Pine Beach Peninsula, Brainerd, Minnesota. Additional information, including the educational schedule, lodging details and registration, is available on the NCBA website at ncbiomed.org.
