Providing an invaluable networking opportunity, the themes chosen for each congress focus on the biggest trends and common issues in the sector.

Expert-led sessions are complemented by workshops, breakouts, scientific posters, exhibitors from across the industry, social events, local hospital visits and much more. It’s a hive of knowledge exchange, collaboration, and innovation – a chance to gather our international community to focus on what healthcare leaders can learn from each other to improve service delivery at home.
