Con tal objetivo y bajo el lema de “Brindar excelencia en Salud Cardiovascular”, profesionales de todos los continentes, pero especialmente de la región de Centroamérica y El Caribe, junto a otros de América Latina y del Norte se reunirán en el Palacio de las Convenciones de La Habana, moderno centro de reuniones donde se han efectuado importantes y célebres eventos de categoría universal. Más de un centenar de renombrados especialistas internacionales, junto a los cubanos, reunidos en su más importante evento cardiológico regional y nacional, participarán en una trascendente cita científica, que permitirá además profundizar los lazos de fraternidad y amistad que tradicionalmente nos ha unido.
Las virtudes de nuestro país, en esta época de inicios del verano, permitirán a todos los participantes disfrutar de la particular belleza de nuestro mar y playas caribeñas, así como de otros disímiles y atrayentes paisajes. Todo ello unido al disfrute de la popular música y bailes cubanos y al contacto directo con nuestra historia y realidad, propiciará a los asistentes disfrutar de momentos inolvidables de ciencia, tecnología y amistad.
¡Los esperamos en La Habana en 2018! ¡Bienvenidos!
