Invitation

Best of ESC Congress 2023
A Cardiology Update Series

Bangalore, India
23-24 September 2023

Dear Doctor

It is a real pleasure to announce the symposium “Best of ESC Congress 2023”, a Cardiology Update Series to be held in Bangalore on September 23th – 24th, 2023. The event will take place just a few days after the ESC Congress in Amsterdam and will inform you about the most recent ESC Guidelines, innovations, and developments in cardiovascular medicine.

After the immense success and wide acclaim for the Cardiology Update meetings in India since 2019 we will present again a truly spectacular 2-day scientific program. The agenda is based on current needs as well as topics which are of paramount importance in clinical practice and were discussed at the ESC Congress including prevention, acute and chronic coronary syndromes, arrhythmias, heart failure and cardiomyopathies. A particular highlight is the review of the ESC Hotline Sessions with the late breaking trials which will have an impact on clinical practice. This is a great opportunity for Indian doctors to hear these hot topics from the ESC Congress the first time in India directly from the responsible investigators and world-renowned experts.

The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the guidelines they issue have become increasingly influential in the practice of cardiovascular medicine in India. The goal of the symposium is to further develop the Indian-European collaboration in cardiovascular medicine.

We look forward to welcoming you at this prestigious meeting which will set a milestone in professional education for the benefit of your practice and your patients.

Yours sincerely,

The Scientific Directors

Prof. Thomas F. Lüscher
