The Association of British HealthTech Industries (ABHI) is partnering with The Future Surgery Show in partnership with The Royal College of Surgeons of England, where they will be delivering a state-of-the art surgical simulation theatre for the first time.
The event, which is going live for 2021, is the largest surgical event in the UK to bring together trainees, anaesthetists, and the entire surgical care team.
Taking place at ExCel London on November 9 and 10, the show aims to promote networking, develop a stronger voice, and meet the training needs of all surgical professionals and their multidisciplinary teams in perioperative care.
Taking centre stage at the event this year will be ‘ABHI’s Surgical Simulation Theatre of The Future’, which will replicate a fully working operating theatre giving world-class surgeons a platform to demonstrate the latest pioneering surgical techniques.
The initiative, which is being launched on the dedicated ABHI Pavilion, will celebrate collaborations between healthcare providers, clinicians, and healthcare technology companies, allowing visitors to watch the UK’s best surgeons in action.
Paul Benton, managing director, international, ABHI, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with The Royal College of Surgeons of England at the Future of Surgery Show 2021. The event is dedicated to all that is new in surgery and provides a truly unique platform for experts and innovators in surgery to come together. Surgery is changing, and fast, and it is clear that innovation is fundamental to the process.
“We are excited to be hosting a dedicated ABHI Pavilion for the first time, giving attendees a chance to see a series of surgical simulations including the latest innovations in surgery in action. Our simulated operating theatre will provide a platform for world-class UK clinicians to showcase their skills and leading providers to engage and educate visitors.”
