The briefing
Hosted by the European Society of Cardiology, this is the world's most prominent cardiovascular research meeting. While clinical at its core, it features a heavy and growing emphasis on digital health, remote monitoring, and artificial intelligence in cardiovascular medicine. Companies present trials on smart wearables, ECG algorithms, and machine learning models for cardiac imaging. It is essential for healthtech operators developing cardiac diagnostics or monitoring platforms.
What to expect
- Late-breaking clinical trials on cardiac wearables
- AI algorithm performance data in electrocardiography
- European clinical guidelines updates for cardiovascular care
- Telehealth and remote monitoring efficacy studies
Who is in the room
Cardiologists, clinical researchers, medical device executives, digital health founders, and pharmaceutical directors attend this congress.
Background
The first ESC Congress was held in London in 1950. Over decades, it transitioned from a specialized medical meeting into a massive global forum where digital health, software-as-a-medical-device, and machine learning are now integrated alongside traditional pharmacology and medical devices.
