Welcome Letter

Dear ESGO family, friends, and colleagues,

 

It is our great pleasure to invite you to join us at the 26th European Congress on Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO 2025), which will take place in February 20-23, 2025, in Rome, Italy.

The ESGO Congress in 2025 is planned to build on the success of past ESGO congresses, each of which attracted more than 2 500 participants from more than 100 countries. In addition, the upcoming Congress in Rome aims to bring together an international audience in gynaecological cancer involving all multidisciplinary specialities to share the best clinical practices and research discoveries that will shape the future of the treatment of gynaecological malignancies and raise the bar of the standards of care.

Finally, and this for several years now, while few innovations arrived at the bedside of patients with gynaecological cancers over the last 20 years, we see new data arriving every year, changing practice for these patients. These new data must be assimilated and made available to physicians ever more quickly in order to optimize the daily management of these patients.

“COVERGING ROADS IN GYNAECOLOGICAL CANCER” will be the key word in this Congress, and Rome is the perfect city where all roads lead. This is the spirit of the 2025 ESGO Congress, therefore it will be an excellent platform to discuss the latest scientific findings.

The Congress programme will feature lectures, debates, and panel discussions led by selected experts sharing their knowledge, outlining the most recent advances in the medical field and surgical techniques, and addressing hot controversial topics. Moreover, deep learning in the updates in the management of endometrial, ovarian, cervical, vulvar cancer, and rare gynaecological tumours will be provided. On top of that, live surgery sessions have been planned to have the opportunity to appreciate the best European surgeons dealing with complex surgical decisions. The Congress will enable professionals to keep up to date with the latest research in the surgical and medical field of gynaecologic cancer management, learn directly from the experience of other colleagues, and create an excellent platform for valuable face-to-face networking and knowledge exchange.

Additionally, Rome is a welcoming city with a warm climate and people. An international and cosmopolitan metropolis, open to the sea and to the mountains. The Congress will be held in an unbeatable location, La Nuvola (the Cloud), a cocoon-like structure made of advanced membrane fibre glass, designed by one of the most famous Italian architects. The position is in between the international airport and the city centre, and it is well connected with several facilities and services. It hosts auditoriums, exhibition spaces and a hotel – amassing 55,000 square metres in new public space. All in an eco-friendly approach.

We welcome you to join us at ESGO 2025 in Rome, where the community of gynaecological cancer professionals will meet to advance the future of gynaecologic cancer treatment, shape the future of our patients, and move us all a significant step further together. Follow your road leading to Rome!

Yours Sincerely,
