Heart Failure 2026
Evolution in Heart Failure
About the Congress
Innovation, Collaboration, and the Power to Change Lives
Heart Failure 2026, organised by the Heart Failure Association of the ESC, brings the global heart failure community to accelerate innovation and translate science into better care.
From novel therapies and innovative devices to digital health and AI‑driven solutions, the programme challenged perspectives and turned evidence into action.
The energy, engagement, and expertise shared throughout the congress demonstrated that evolution in heart failure is not only possible — it is already underway.
