The ESC Patient Round Table

Bringing together patients, ESC leaders and industry representatives, to drive meaningful change in patient engagement.

A Platform for Multi-Stakeholder Collaboration in Patient Engagement

The ESC Patient Round Table is an initiative from the ESC Patient Forum designed to enable structured, multi-stakeholder collaboration between patients, healthcare professionals, and industry partners.

This collaborative platform provides a trusted and transparent space for strategic dialogue on emerging trends, key challenges, and opportunities in patient engagement across the cardiovascular landscape. As part of this initiative, the ESC will organise regular meetings to facilitate exchange and support meaningful collaboration among stakeholders.

By bringing together diverse perspectives, the Patient Round Table aims to help shape the future of patient engagement in cardiovascular health, promoting innovation, shared learning, and tangible progress for the benefit of patients and the wider health community.
