It takes a system to save a life

This was the motto for the second European EMS conference that took place in Tivoli Congres Center in Copenhagen, 22-24 May. As with last year’s conference it saw 1300 delegates and a global line up of expert speakers convene for a truly international come-together of the EMS family.

Find more here:

• EMS2017 main event page
• EMS2017 programme
• EMS2017 speaker line up

This here is the landing page for #FOAMed content initiated by the scanFOAM team for the conference.

As a bit of a learning experience we live streamed the main stage programme. Those sessions will be edited and uploaded along with the 3 concurrent tracks where we have audio and slides.

Social media echo

Twitter: Conference hashtag #EMS2017.

Facebook: The EMS2017 page which also has some of the streamed content

Instagram: The conference account.

#FOAMed release

The talks and slides from most sessions have generously been approved for release by the speakers. This makes it available to participants (who will have missed 3 out of 4 concurrents) and non-participants alike. Editing may take som time. Content will go live below as it becomes ready.

We hope you enjoy it and that it will tie you over till we meet in Copenhagen next year for #EMS2018.

Vive la #FOAMed and #FOAMems.
