Sponsors & Exhibitors

The World Congresses on Endometriosis (WCE) are made possible because of our longstanding partnerships with sponsors, exhibitors, and collaborators. The World Endometriosis Society (WES) is appreciative of this ongoing support and collaboration, which enables us to move the field of endometriosis and adenomyosis forward together to improve the lives of those affected and their families.

Sponsoring the 15th World Congress on Endometriosis provides:

• Outstanding access to the key international experts in the clinical management and scientific research of endometriosis, adenomyosis, and other uterine disorders
• Extensive global marketing visibility to ~1200 delegates
• Ongoing website visibility with a direct link to your website
• Opportunities to identify cutting edge topical issues: clinical, pre-clinical, and research and development
• Establishment of relationships with the current and future leaders in the field of endometriosis, adenomyosis, and other uterine disorders

The Congress will be held in the Edinburgh International Conference Centre, known locally as the EICC, which is situated in the heart of the historic city of Edinburgh. It is just a short walk away from Princes Street, Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile.

The striking circular design of the Centre has made it one of Edinburgh’s most distinctive landmarks. As you would expect from a world-class venue, the technical presentation and communication facilities are modern, efficient and adaptable.

Edinburgh

Edinburgh is a cosmopolitan city with a wide variety of museums, art galleries, theatres, shops and restaurants. It is a compact city and all its attractions are within walking distance or a short bus or taxi journey.

The Georgian New Town is classically elegant whilst the Old Town, with its tightly packed closes, has a medieval flavour.

Edinburgh Castle, the most famous of Scottish castles, perched on a volcanic crag that sweeps down the Royal Mile to the Royal Palace of Holyrood House, dominates the city and is well worth a visit. It is home to the Scottish Crown Jewels, the oldest Royal Regalia in Britain, displayed alongside the Stone of Destiny, the coronation stone for the Kings of Scotland.

Edinburgh is easily reachable by air and road. Once in the city, there are vast options of public transport.
