AFNET at the 2026 ESC Congress in Munich

The 2026 ESC Congress took place in Munich from 28th to 31st of August 2026. The annual congress of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) is one of the world’s leading professional events in cardiology. It brings together experts from academia, research and clinical practice from around the globe.

AFNET was also represented at the 2026 ESC Congress. The congress provided a valuable platform for scientific exchange, fostering international collaborations and networking with partners in cardiovascular research.

A particular focus was on the study-related meetings concerning the international research projects EASThigh-AFNET 11, MAESTRIA-AFNET 10, and AF-B-STEP, in which AFNET is actively involved. During these meetings, the current status of the studies, scientific findings and the next steps in the projects were discussed jointly with the international consortia.

The ESC provided an opportunity to learn about current developments in cardiology and innovative approaches to cardiac care.

By participating in the congress, AFNET once again underscored the importance of international collaboration for the further advancement of research on atrial fibrillation and cardiac arrhythmias.
