New technologies have the potential to transform the way we deliver care for our patients, often making treatments safer, more effective and easier to deliver.

In this meeting we will focus on some of the exciting new technological developments in ENT with presentations from the leading innovators in their field. We will also be introducing a cross-cutting theme on what ENT doctors can get involved with beyond their day job.

The meeting will be concluded with something completely different, an inspirational lecture from one of the football premiership’s most successful chief executives. 

By attending the meeting, you will

  • Be introduced to some of the new technologies in ENT already available or being developed
  • Discuss how new innovations might enhance outcomes for patients whilst being mindful of their potential risks
  • Explore ways ENT professionals can engage with innovation, leadership, and opportunities beyond their clinical roles.
