Conflict of Interest

Must be signed by all Faculty, Programme Committee Members, invited speakers, session chairs, workshop trainers, round-table moderators, discussion facilitators, developers and presenters of educational content and format of e-learning material. 
We will contact you if you need to complete a Conflict of Interest.

At the Congress all speakers must disclose verbally and using a slide at the beginning of the presentation. Examples of relationships that should be disclosed include, but are not limited to:

• Any direct financial payments including receipt of honoraria;
• Membership on the advisory board or speakers’ bureaus;
• Funded grants or clinical trials;
• Patents on a drug, product or device;
• All other investments or relationships which could be seen by a reasonable, well-informed participant as having the potential to influence the content of the educational activity.

If the speaker has no involvement with any for-profit or not-for-profit organisation, they should inform the audience that they have nothing to disclose, i.e., cannot identify any potential conflict of interest. It is the sole responsibility of the individual speaker to make such disclosure to the audience at the time of the presentation.
