About this session

Lunch is on us, and it's actually good. Hot, real food, not a cold box lunch you eat alone in a hallway. We want to fuel your belly as much as your mind and your heart while you're here. And since Industry Partners are right there with you, lunch is another real chance to sit down and talk, not just eat and go.

Overview

About this event

The talks are just the beginning!

FAST combines TED-style presentations, hands-on workshops, creator meetups, and unforgettable networking experiences into one shared event for the EMS and critical care transport community.

Why FAST

One event. One shared experience.

FAST is designed around what happens when an entire community learns, talks, and connects together.

No competing tracks

Attendees, speakers, exhibitors, creators, and guests share the same experience instead of splitting into separate rooms.

Ideas worth sharing

TED-style MAINSTAGE presentations focus on practical ideas, new perspectives, and better care—not content for content's sake.

Stronger conversations

A shared program creates deeper discussion, stronger connections, and a community that keeps learning long after the event.

Built for impact

Every session and experience is designed around one goal: better clinicians and better patient outcomes.

Your FAST badge

The complete FAST experience

Your badge doesn't just provide access to the stage. It opens the door to the conversations, relationships, and community that make FAST unlike a traditional conference.

MAINSTAGE access

Full access to all FAST27 MAINSTAGE presentations on May 4–5, 2027.

Optional hands-on workshops

Expand your experience on May 3 with separately ticketed pre-conference workshops and additional CE opportunities. A FAST27 badge is required.

Included meals and refreshments

Enjoy catered hot lunch on both MAINSTAGE days plus complimentary coffee and refreshments throughout the conference.

FAST Creator Festival™

FAST After Hours™

Continue the conversation on May 4 with attendees, speakers, exhibitors, creators, and industry partners over drinks in Kentucky's Bourbon Country, with two complimentary adult beverage tickets included.
