The posters at the International Forum

Our poster displays are a valuable opportunity to tell colleagues and experts from across the world about your improvement and safety projects. These help other attendees learn from your strategies and experience.

Every year, at our International Forums across the world, we have hundreds of displays that demonstrate a wide range of improvement and safety projects implemented in local, national or global settings. These are available onsite and online for all attendees to view and learn from.

We encourage you to share your achievements and contribute with your work and ideas to improving healthcare worldwide.

The ePoster topics

The programme theme in Hong Kong will be A sustainable healthcare horizon: refocus, reenergize, reconnect.

We will bring together healthcare professionals, patients, and stakeholders to explore practical solutions that prioritise the wellbeing of individuals, the planet, and healthcare systems. Being part of this conference will be an opportunity to refocus, regroup, and reconnect through a forward-thinking approach to ensure we are achieving greater impact together.
