Throughout 2025, the Barcelona International Convention
Centre (CCIB) is set to welcome 15 major European and International medical
events.
The 35th Conference of the European Wound Management
Association (EWMA) marks the first of these conferences. Taking place between
26 and 28 March, the event is excepted to welcome more than 6,000 professionals
from 90 countries to discuss the latest innovations in leg edema, pressure ulcers,
nutrition related to wound recovery, pain management, hidradenitis suppurativa,
palliative care, and burns.
Organised jointly with the Spanish Advisory Group for the
Study of Pressure Ulcers and Chronic Wounds (GNEAUPP) and in collaboration with
the Spanish Wounds Society (SEHER), the event is held under the theme
"Moving towards excellence in wound management by breaking frontiers and
silos." The event aims to "overcome geographical, cultural, and
professional barriers while fostering collaboration across disciplines and
sectors."
Among the other major medical meetings taking place at CCIB
(managed by Fira de Barcelona) are the congress on gastrointestinal cancers
organised by the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), the congress of
the European Society for Evolutionary Biology (ESEB), the interventional
radiology congress (CIRSE), the world congress on multiple sclerosis (ECTRIMS),
