Its audience spans primary, acute and specialty care, bringing pharmaceutical companies, diagnostic suppliers, employers and nursing educators into the same professional meeting. Clinical education drives the trip; the exhibition adds products, practice services and career conversations to that agenda.

Family practice is particularly prominent: family certification accounted for 73% of the attendees described in the 2025 profile. The program also serves clinicians working in cardiology, endocrinology, emergency care and mental health. Research posters, skills workshops and policy discussions connect the exhibition to decisions practitioners make in patient care. AANP has retired its fall conference, leaving the national meeting as its broad clinical gathering alongside a separate health policy conference.

For practitioners who treat children, NAPNAP National Conference on Pediatric Health Care concentrates the conversation on pediatrics. Pediatric nurse practitioners, family nurse practitioners and other pediatric-focused APRNs attend for evidence-based child-health education and products for their daily practice. Its 2027 Sacramento program offers more than 70 sessions. AANP brings a wider clinical audience, which suits suppliers whose products cross age groups and specialties.

NPWH Women’s Healthcare Conference provides a more focused setting for women’s and gender-related care. Its Richmond gathering serves clinicians, students and professional leaders within that specialty. AANP is useful when women’s health is one part of a broader clinical portfolio, or when a visitor wants to compare practice resources across several disciplines.

AANP Health Policy Conference in Washington is the more direct choice for advocacy skills, government priorities and congressional engagement. The National Conference combines policy discussion with clinical education and a varied exhibit hall. For a company selling therapeutics, diagnostics, continuing education or clinical staffing, that combination makes AANP a meeting with practicing NPs across different settings; a specialist association meeting concentrates the audience around a narrower clinical need.

AANP is the right trip for nurse practitioners and suppliers whose work crosses primary care, specialty treatment and the business of clinical practice.

Who exhibits

The exhibition combines patient-care products with professional services. Novo Nordisk and Novartis sit alongside GeneSight - Myriad Genetics and Inspire Medical Systems, while LocumTenens and Weatherby Healthcare bring recruitment into the mix. Vanderbilt University School of Nursing and continuing-education organizations add training and career development. This is a clinician’s exhibition: conversations extend from therapies and diagnostic tools to where NPs work and how they maintain their skills.

2027 AANP National Conference

The 2027 conference moves to New Orleans after the Las Vegas meeting. AANP’s presentation program includes extended seminars, hands-on workshops, podium presentations and research posters. Scientific posters from industry connect the exhibition with clinical research, and participation is reserved for exhibiting companies. The exhibitor lineup already brings together pharmaceutical manufacturers, diagnostic businesses, staffing organizations and nursing schools, keeping the national meeting’s combination of clinical education and professional services.

  • Treat the hands-on workshops as a separate learning choice: AANP charges an additional workshop fee beyond conference registration.
  • Combine poster discussions with exhibition time. AANP schedules its research poster sessions while the exhibit hall is open.
