The ACS Surgical Simulation Summit offers valuable exposure to attendees, providing ample opportunities for one-on-one interactions with both current and potential customers. With a manageable size, the meeting encourages meaningful, in-depth conversations that are often difficult to achieve in overcrowded, competitive exhibit halls. This is an excellent opportunity to connect with decision-makers from academic teaching centers, medical schools, hospitals, and healthcare delivery systems who are responsible for purchasing your products and services.
Take advantage of this opportunity to engage with a diverse group of surgeons, physicians, educators, simulation center directors, administrators, technicians, and others from the U.S. and worldwide who are dedicated to educating learners, enhancing patient safety, and advancing the field of simulation-based surgical education. Attendees view the exhibits as an extension of their continuing education and are eager to learn from you about the latest advancements and trends in surgical simulation.
"Excellent meeting with highly qualified leads. We’ll be back next year!”
