We believe that improvement in international cardiovascular public health outcomes will require an increasing focus on peripheral arterial disease (PAD). In turn, acceleration in achieving improvements in PAD outcomes will require effective and collaborative interactions amongst clinicians, research funding organizations, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare providers, payers and regulators.

This conference is aimed at analyzing these interactions and discussing likely future developments. Participants will primarily be key representatives of these organizations. The format of the meeting will be small sessions with experts addressing specific questions, followed by an open discussion in which we hope that all participants will actively take part. There will be no parallel sessions. The program is designed to include 7 general sessions, with each to include 4 expert presentations. Well known international speakers will be selected to provide background and perspective on each of these topics, based on current global knowledge, experience and competence, and representing both Europe and the USA.

We wish you most welcome to interesting days in Örebro.
On behalf of the International Program Committee and the Local Organisation.

Yours sincerely,

Lars Norgren
Professor, M.D.
