EFORT

CONGRESS

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

We are excited to invite you to the 28th EFORT Congress Athens 2027, which has a challenging theme: EFORT is IMPACTInnovating Musculoskeletal Practice — Advancing Clinical ouTcomes.

What better place to come together than the birthplace of European dialogue and philosophy?

Inspired by the great Greek thinkers, who stimulated debate, we want to spark lively discussions and critical appraisal of ideas among experienced orthopaedic and trauma surgeons, young colleagues, researchers, and fellow health professionals alike.

Through lively dialogue, we co-create innovative solutions, aimed at improving outcome for our patients.

While innovation is important, demonstrating clinical evidence of performance and safety for patients is crucial.

The IMPACT of EFORT goes well beyond our annual congress and educational webinars. As your orthopaedic and trauma umbrella organisation, we actively represent your interests through EU Commission activities — including Expert Panels under the MDR and the EBOT Exam — as well as by opening doors to research grants, making sure your voice is heard where it matters most.

So come join us in Athens, Greece, from Wednesday 19 to Friday 21 May 2027, be curious, challenge your ideas to improve your skills, for the better of your patients.

See you in Athens !
