Global Oncology Initiative

Advancing Oncology Through Global Collaboration

Connecting the world’s leading oncologists, researchers, and institutions to accelerate breakthroughs in cancer treatment through shared knowledge and multi-disciplinary events.

Our Story

From a Small Symposium to a Global Movement

Founded in 1998 by a coalition of six leading research oncologists, our organization began with a singular purpose: to break down the silos that existed between regional cancer research centers.

"Cancer knows no borders, and neither should the science used to fight it. We believed that by sharing our failures as openly as our successes, we could accelerate the pace of discovery."

Over the past two decades, we have evolved from an annual symposium into a continuous, year-round platform for collaboration. Today, we facilitate critical dialogue between academia, clinical practice, and pharmaceutical innovation, ensuring that every breakthrough finds its way to the patients who need it most.
