In 2023, we hosted two days show in Dubai from September 15th to 16th, submitted cases were reviewed by the scientific committee, and the accepted cases were presented during this Show alongside contributions from regional and international presenters. Additionally, we featured other intriguing topics from our partners.
Throughout 2021/2022, we organized four waves, each focusing on different tracks, and successfully gathered more than 80 cases from various regions. These cases underwent a thorough review by the scientific committee, with most being accepted for publication in our online library. This library, built by the Intervention Working Group of the Emirates Cardiac Society since the beginning of 2021, serves as an educational and documentation reference for interventional cardiologists in the region, aligning with the primary goal of the Intervention Champions Club Show. along with accreditation from EBAC for 11 CME credits and endorsement by EHS.
We extend our gratitude to the entire audience on behalf of the Project Chairmen, Program Directors, and Program Coordinator. Furthermore, we would like to share some of the main statistics from the show held from September 15th to 16th, 2023
