Creating a more inclusive and supportive Congress experience

At BEVA Congress, we're committed to making the event welcoming, accessible, and supportive for everyone. Thanks to your feedback and the support of our partners, we've introduced a range of initiatives designed to help you feel comfortable, included, and able to enjoy everything Congress has to offer.

Spaces to pause, reflect and recharge

• Boehringer mindfulness lounge

  Take a moment away from the busy Congress programme in our calm space dedicated to reflection and relaxation. Open Thursday - Saturday in executive room E.
