Live-chat

- What are the registrations prices at the EWMA 2020 conference?
Registration prices can be found here
- If we are not allowed to give away any of our guest registrations to customers, KOLs etc. since there are more regulations around this now – do you have any suggestion on how to solve this?
In case your company finds that you are not in a position to distribute the registrations due to your compliance guidelines we can offer that EWMA will advertise the registration as grants on the EWMA website. Delegates can apply for these grants via the EWMA website and EWMA will select the grant receivers. The grant text will clearly indicate that the grants are provided by your company incl. your company logo.
If you would like target the grants to a few specific countries/regions you will be able to. For instance should you have 50 free registrations you could decide to give 25 to Germany and 25 to China/Asia. We will advertise your grants on our website, on social media and in EWMA newsletters.
Posters
- Regarding the posters, one of our KOLs that has his poster accepted, is asking me if he needs to do an oral presentation (he won´t be able to do that because of date conflict). On the other hand, he´s asking for help to prepare the e-poster
There is the possibility to upload an audio recording together with the e-poster. This is up to the presenter if he/she would like to include this or not.
