NOTE: The 2026 AUA Annual Meeting and the 2026 AUA Innovation Nexus Forum are separate events and involve separate registration fees and processes.

Registration Process: Regardless of AUA membership status or registration type, all attendees must use an AUA ID in order to register. An AUA ID does not constitute AUA membership, and there is no cost to receive one. If you are not an AUA member and need to receive an AUA ID, it can be requested from the registration page using the email of the intended registration (i.e., administrators should not use their own email addresses to register others). Please allow up to 24 hours after requesting an AUA ID to receive it via email. If you are attempting to register multiple individuals in one session, we recommend gathering all AUA IDs for the individuals involved before beginning the registration order. All fields marked required in the online form must be completed in order to register.

Attendee Information Sharing: To encourage post-Forum networking, attendee contact information may be shared after the Forum concludes. Registrants who do not wish for their contact information (e.g., name, email, and institution/company) to be shared must indicate this preference during the registration process. Attendee information may also be used by the American Urological Association and its vendors assisting in the Forum operations to send you information and materials concerning the 2026 AUA Innovation Nexus Forum and similar programs offered by the AUA. Consent to these information sharing parameters may be revoked at any time after registration by contacting the AUA at CustomerService@AUAnet.org.

Housing: Requests to reserve a hotel can be submitted at the link below. The Innovation Nexus Forum shares housing requests with the hotels involved in the 2026 AUA Annual Meeting. If you plan to stay for AUA2026, you may book the full length of your stay with the options provided. Learn More

Day-of Registration: Attendees must be registered and paid in full to participate in the Innovation Nexus Forum. Attendees without an Innovation Nexus Forum badge on site will be required to provide proof of registration to the 2026 Innovation Nexus Forum (e.g., not the 2026 AUA Annual Meeting) or register to enter. Cashless (e.g., credit card) registration may be available the day of the meeting up to 12 p.m. PST. However, AUA cannot guarantee space will be available.

Registration Changes/Cancellations: Registrations are not transferable; name substitutions to other individuals are not permitted in advance of or on the day of the Forum. To cancel or alter your registration to the AUA Innovation Nexus Forum, you must submit a written request on or before March 31, 2026. Cancellation or partial refund requests received by this date will be honored, less a $100 administrative processing fee. No refunds will be honored on requests received on or after March 29, 2026. Please allow four to six weeks to process your refund. Anyone registering after March 28, 2026, and wishing to cancel or reduce their registration at a later date will receive no refund on any part of their registration fees. Cancellation or change requests can be emailed to CustomerService@AUAnet.org.
