Industry-Sponsored Symposia
Provide attendees with an extra learning opportunity by hosting an educational symposium on a topic and

Symposia will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Symposia time slots are available Sunday and Monday, June 17th and 18th, at 7:00 pm and will be located at the headquarters hotel. The fee for Sunday night is $3,500; the fee for Monday night is $5,000. Contact Pat Watson, exhibit@asmbs.org for more details.
The ASMBS does not participate in joint sponsorships for CME credit; therefore, if credit is
provided for any symposium, it is a direct responsibility of the sponsoring company.
The American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education (CME) credit for physicians. As such the ASMBS is responsible for the design and implementation of all of its CME activities and requires planners and supporters to follow strictly the ACCME’s Standards for Commercial Support.
With respect to commercial support the terms and conditions of the support must be described in a written agreement between the accredited provider and the commercial supporter. Any event or product that contains advertising or promotional opportunities must not be part of the educational CME activity. For a complete list of all CME policies click here.
