Due to the current situation, we have taken the difficult decision to hold ACHD 2020 as an online event, allowing the meeting to go ahead despite the current global pandemic. While this is not what we had originally planned, we are really excited about what we can create virtually.We will be using a state-of-the-art virtual events platform to host a fully interactive conference, which will consist of two days of high-quality educational content. Make no mistake, this is not another standard webinar. Our virtual event platform offers interactive seminars, including chat, Q&A and live polling options. But it also includes an online exhibition space, a virtual poster presentation section, and there are numerous networking opportunities for delegates, in our virtual networking breakout spaces.

We are delighted with the continued support the meeting has attracted over the last 2 decades and encourage all attendees to make the most of the discussion time included in the programme to share difficult cases with peers and bring issues central to their own practice to the table. The meeting’s primary focus remains the same: to provide a forum for lively debate on the latest clinical, surgical and scientific developments in the world of adult congenital cardiology. This year however, we are able to reach an even wider, more international audience than ever before and we look forward to welcoming everyone to our online event space.
