The SVS is introducing a three-tiered pricing plan for the 2023 Vascular Annual Meeting (VAM). Early-bird rates start when registration opens March 15.
The cost of putting on major conferences and events is skyrocketing in the post-COVID era, requiring medical societies, including the SVS, to plan as early and as accurately as possible for anticipated costs. “There is a premium on getting as much advanced planning data on attendance as we can, to keep costs under control and allocated where they are needed most,” noted SVS Executive Director Kenneth M. Slaw, PhD.
Attendees can take advantage of the early-bird prices until April 5. The advance rate is then in effect from April 6 to June 12. The on-site rate begins June 13, when registration opens at the Gaylord venue in National Harbor, Maryland.
“We have worked through the COVID-19 crisis and now are adapting to a post-COVID world of rising costs and inflation,” said Michael Dalsing, MD, SVS president. “This change to three tiers of registration enables us to better contain rising costs, which in turn allows SVS to keep registration fee increases to a minimum, while continuing to invest in increasing value for VAM attendees. I encourage our members to register as early as possible.” Full pricing across all membership categories and time frames, plus pricing for add-ons, is available at vascular.org/VAM23Registration.
