EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Since its introduction in 2000, the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology has become the primary platform for exchanging scientific and clinical information in Europe. It is a highly recognised event which facilitates interaction between expert medical doctors and scientists, people with arthritis/rheumatism, health professionals and representatives of the pharmaceutical industry each year. Having experienced considerable growth in relation to the number of participants and the quality of abstract submissions over the past years, EULAR offers you the opportunity to align your organisation with the world’s leading and best attended event in the rheumatology calendar, a melting pot of the latest findings and trends — a must-attend appointment.
The EULAR Congress, a unique event, offers a vast variety of scientific sessions that present in-depth successes, challenges, and global updates on where the community stands in the fight against rheumatism and musculoskeletal related diseases. Platforms to meet and network amongst delegates are plentiful and interaction with rheumatology organisations, industry and governmental agencies, commercial and non-commercial entities are offered in the form of the exhibition as well as satellite symposia. At the EULAR Congress 2024, over 12,700 delegates from around 130 countries attended, most if not all professions working with rheumatology were represented. For all individuals and organisations committed to the fight against rheumatic diseases this is an event that must be attended. Getting involved in the annual EULAR Congress facilitates a unique opportunity to leverage four days of unparalleled access to the leaders of the rheumatology world.
HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED?
There are many ways in which you and your organisation can be part of the upcoming annual event. Be present on the exhibition floor to demonstrate your latest products (more than 50 onsite exhibitors at EULAR 2024), hold a satellite symposium session (32 satellite symposia at EULAR 2024) and take advantage of the many support and advertising opportunities available to you.
Our team is here to work with you on a one-to-one basis to ensure your investment and presence at the meeting are maximised. Whatever your objectives are, we can create a tailor-made package that will satisfy your exact needs and deliver the desired results. Exhibiting is a powerful form of marketing, providing unlimited opportunities to drive sales, increase visibility, create positive publicity, differentiate from the competition, and broaden competitive advantage by increasing credibility, image and prestige to a highly targeted audience.
We know that valuable partnerships will be formed at EULAR 2025 and that this yearly event is a unique platform for you to showcase your latest medical products and services.
