The annual ESC Spring Summit is where strategies are developed and plans turn into action. At the European Heart House in Sophia Antipolis, France, the summit is a chance for European Society of Cardiology leaders and National Cardiac Societies to meet and to develop strategies to confront important issues in cardiovascular health.

Discussions and debates around a specific theme help attendees get a better understanding of the topic and bring about progress, whether in policy, research or clinical practice. 

The 2026 theme is ‘Towards a Global Cardiovascular Health Plan: Tackling Obesity, Aging and Environment’. A timely focus in light of the recently adopted EU Safe Hearts Plan and an exciting opportunity for all ESC member countries to seize the opportunities this plan will initiate.
