SITEupdate is a new fresh formula for a useful expert event. In only one day, Faculty
and an international advanced audience will review the unmet needs concerning
three particular Focuses: Aorta repair, lower limb revascularization and manage-
ment of venous disorders.
The main objective is to identify current limitations and propose future directions.
It is a new initiative with a different format than we usually have in conventional
meetings and congresses. There are no classical presentations. Committed Medical
Device Companies are invited to share their pipelines and new concepts during the
CONFIDENTIAL SESSIONS.
All the participants are experts on endovascular procedures, bioengineering, in-
dustry management, technological evaluation, and health management adminis-
tration. All of you, panellists and delegates should interact during the discussion
periods. A real brainstorming is expected following a clear script and driven by two
moderators in a real academic atmosphere.
All the sessions, except for the Confidential ones, will be recorded and uploaded on
www.endovascular.tv. A streaming platform and free wi-fi connection are provided.
We hope you enjoy these interactive sessions and collaborate to develop new ideas
to improve endovascular therapies.
Welcome and thank you for your collaboration.
