Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 58th Annual Meeting of the Association for European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology to be held in Hamburg, Germany, between May 28th and 31st, 2025.

The meeting is hosted by the local organizing committee from the University Heart & Vascular Center Hamburg, Clinic for Children’s Heart Medicine and Adults with Congenital Heart Disease.

The AEPC 2025 Annual Meeting will be held in the Congress Center Hamburg (CCH), which is one of Europe’s top convention centers and is conveniently located downtown.

We strive to provide an exciting annual meeting. We look forward to hosting an academically engaging conference with exceptional speakers on important topics in congenital heart disease. We have established a local scientific committee that works closely with the AEPC Scientific Advisory Group to ensure the high quality of the content and to make the meeting as scientifically and clinically stimulating as possible. It is very important to us to offer an excellent update course and to give the young AEPC forum a perfect platform for fruitful academic exchange.

Hamburg’s cosmopolitan and creative atmosphere will provide the ideal setting for scientific exchange in the field of pediatric heart medicine and adults with congenital heart defects. Welcome and farewell, strangers, and encounters are part of the port city’s DNA. The city’s scene and nightlife are known all over the world, and Hamburg is also a great shopping metropolis. The Hamburg Speicherstadt, which has been officially listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the largest contiguous historical warehouse complex in the world. You can feel the history on every corner here. The world-famous Elbphilharmonie concert hall has put Hamburg in the spotlight as the current must-see destination for music lovers worldwide.

We are therefore sure that you will not only take a professional booster with you from Hamburg, but also lasting cultural impressions, because “Hamburg is not only the gateway to the world, the world is also at home here”.

Come aboard and contribute to an unforgettable AEPC Annual Meeting 2025.
