Sustainability

What are we (ISUOG) doing this year to make the World Congress more sustainable?
 
ISUOG is working hard to try to reduce the negative impact of the Congress on the environment. Every year, we are doing more to reduce our impact and build a more sustainable event. So far, some of the things we have been doing include: greatly reducing our printed materials, avoiding single-use materials where possible, and encouraging our delegates to bring a reusable water bottle to the venue. Please see the sustainability section of our FAQs for more information on this.
 
We are very conscious that there is a lot more to be done on this sustainability journey, and that ISUOG must lead by example to encourage our sponsors and exhibitors to do the same. Thus, we will be making the following efforts at the Cancun congress, as well as continuing the actions we already take: 
 
  • The ISUOG stand will be built with more sustainable/re-usable materials and will have no carpet or linoleum flooring
  • Carpet/flooring is not included in shell scheme packages and is highly discouraged on space only stands. We hope that eventually our Congress will become completely carpet-less
  • Food waste from the Congress will be donated locally, via an initiative run by the Cancun Center
 
We implore our sponsors and exhibitors to reduce their carbon footprint where possible, through methods such as: 
 
  • Reducing/avoiding printed materials: please use digital where possible and where print is essential, please print locally and consider recycled/recyclable materials.
  • Reducing/avoiding unwanted giveaways: please think carefully about items you are bringing to the Congress and only bring items that will be really valued by delegates, preferably sourced locally in recycled/recyclable materials.
  • Using more sustainable and/or re-usable materials to build stands
  • Using public transport onsite rather than private travel, such as taxis
  • Offsetting team members’ flights to the Congress destination, if possible  
 
We hope that, starting this year, our sponsors and exhibitors will make more sustainable choices not only at the ISUOG World Congress, but at all events they attend going forward.

Scan demonstrations

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
 
Mexican regulations stipulate that any ultrasound machine that will be demonstrated on patients must have Mexican COFEPRIS approval to be used in Mexico on patients. If the machine(s) your company is intending to bring to Mexico for demonstrations on patients do not yet have COFEPRIS approval, our local Regional Organising Committee co-chairs are able to support by providing temporary approval via their medical institute (https://medicinafetalmexico.com/ is one example) International Review Boards (IRBs).  
 
If you intend to bring a machine to Mexico for demonstrating on patients that does not have COFEPRIS approval, you MUST apply for this temporary approval, otherwise you will not be allowed to bring your machine into the country (it will be checked by the Mexican Custom authorities, and they can even visit Congresses onsite in person). If you wish to apply for this temporary approval, please send the following information to [email protected]
  • Name of the ultrasound machine  
  • Serial number or ID of the ultrasound machine 
  • Name of the company producing the ultrasound machine  
  • Name of the company representative liable who is traveling with the machine/arranging the shipment   
[if you are bringing a machine to Mexico without COFEPRIS approval but NOT intending to demonstrate it on patients, only a regular temporary importation permission is required] 
 
Under no circumstances may live obstetric or gynecological scans take place on exhibition stands or within the exhibition area. All live scanning must be restricted to: the demonstration area within the scientific sessions or, where pre-booked, meeting rooms or hospitality suites. Those involved in live scan activities must comply with the scan demonstration guidelines
  
Eligibility: X 2 included for Diamond sponsors. X 1 included for Platinum sponsors. Option to purchase x 1 for Gold sponsors 
  
Deadline to submit scan demonstration topic and/or speaker suggestions: 31-Jan-25 
  
The allocation of scan demonstrations will take place in the spring of 2025. Companies will be contacted individually to confirm topic and speaker details. 
  
Logistics: Since several companies are eligible for scan demonstrations, we will allocate each company responsibility to provide some of the basic equipment and ask you to leave it in place for the entire Congress. Please advise the Organiser via the machine specifications & equipment provision form (at the top of this page) which equipment you are able to provide. 
  
Deadline to submit machine specification & equipment provision form: 14-Jun-25

Symposia

Eligibility: Option to purchase for Diamond and Platinum sponsors
