Industry Innovation Events (No-CEU)
Industry Innovation Events (IIE) offer new and innovative ways for industry to showcase their products or provide education. These non-CEU activities are independently organized by sponsors and held before or after official ASM programming. IIEs may include educational symposia to provide clinical updates and educate attendees on current therapies, disease states, products, and pipeline activities; product or device demonstrations; poster tours; panel discussions with KOLs; or wellness activities.
Industry Expert Theaters (No CEU)
Industry Expert Theaters are no CEU educational activities held in dedicated space in the Exhibit Hall. They provide an opportunity for product-specific education. Only exhibitors are eligible to conduct an Industry Expert Theater, which cannot offer continuing education credit.
In Conjunction With (ICW) Meetings
HFSA offers the opportunity to gather heart failure experts during ASM through In Conjunction With (ICW) Meetings. These include face-to-face client meetings, personnel meetings, or hospitality functions, and they are outside the official ASM program and must be submitted for HFSA approval. The majority of ICWs will be located at contracted hotels.
