The congress is aimed at adult and pediatric interventional cardiologists, imaging specialists, cardiothoracic surgeons, anaesthesiologists, nurses, technicians and any other medical specialty involved in congenital, structural or valvar interventions. We are putting together an exciting program with lectures from leading experts and live case transmissions showcasing skilful operators from all over the world.

The scientific program will offer parallel streams of adult, pediatric and mixed sessions so that you can customise your learning experience according to your own interests. Join us for the full four day program or drop in for one of our full day focus workshops dedicated to particular topics in the field. You will be able to gain valuable hands-on simulator experience in our Training Hub and learn about the newest devices, techniques and procedures or explore new fields.
