With 30,000 participants and an unbelievable number of custo interested people, the congress of the European Society of Cardiology in Amsterdam was a complete success. We are already looking forward to continuing our ESC story next year in London.

custo goes South America! For the development of the South American market we successfully founded a subsidiary - "custo med LATAM S.A.S." based in Colombia. On 12 July it became official at the AHK Colombia - congratulations custo med LATAM!

We were also represented at the 32nd Congress of the European Society of Hypertension. Our stand was well visited and many interesting discussions took place. In particular the presentation of the phenotypes and the presence of Dr. Dagnóvar Aristizábal provided an occasion for lively scientific exchange

This year, we were again represented with a small team at the small but nice conference of the German Society for Prevention and Rehabilitation of Cardiovascular Diseases.  The topic this year was "Challenges of modern rehabilitation - climate, technology, lifestyles".

For the first time, we also participated in the FIME in Miami. FIME is the little sister of Arab Health and covers the entire American market. Our South America team was able to gain its first trade fair experience in this market with an information stand in the German pavilion.

For the first time we participated in a congress in Panama. With our new LATAM team, we were able to make good contacts at the congress, which was attended by around 1,500 participants. A successful start for the South American market.

700 national and international exhibitors, more than 300 speakers, over 16,000 participants and an increase of almost 50 per cent compared to the last event before Corona and 45 per cent compared to 2022. These are figures to be proud of. We look forward to next year!

Of course, we were also at the 129th Internists' Congress from 22 to 25 April 2023 in Wiesbaden. The theme "Systemic Thinking - Individual Therapy" was an exciting focus. There was a varied programme and time for good discussions and new contacts.

This year's annual meeting of the DGK took place from April 12 to 15, 2023 as a presence event in Mannheim and was held under the theme "Epidemic heart failure: explore mechanisms, heal hearts!". We were pleased about a successful event with good attendance at our booth.

For the start of the 2023 trade show, we visited Arab Health in Dubai again this year. It was four successful days at a completely booked event. We met many partners and gave training sessions at the booth for the first time. A concept that we will expand in the future. We are already looking forward to the upcoming trade fairs.

Every year again and every year a little bit better. This year we were able to welcome our partners in the wonderful location of Schloss Hohenkammer and spend two informative and exciting days with them. We are already looking forward to next year!

This year we were for the first time at the realtively new congress of the German Heart Days in Bonn. 11 session halls with an interesting program and a comparatively large industry exhibition gave us three entertaining days. We will definitely come again!

At the two-day conference of the Peter Osypka Heart Center in Munich, the main topic was: "News from ESC 2022 - What is important for clinical practice?" We were again represented with a small booth and were able to attend the exciting lectures.

This year, for the first time, we spent 2 days at the DeGAG annual congress of the Society for Arterial Vascular Stiffness. There we could take a lot of suggestions and score with our custo screen 310 for the measurement of central blood pressure.

Due to corona-related postponements, this year's IAT Institute Spring School was exceptionally in the fall. Under the motto "New Technologies in Competitive Sports", we were able to successfully present and exchange ideas there for two days.

Not only our specialized trade partners meet with us every year, since recently we also invite our technicians to Ottobrunn for two days to exchange ideas together and to participate "live" and "on-site" in training courses and trainings.

Four days of ESC. Four days of scientific exchange. Four days of networking, meeting old acquaintances and new interested parties. Four interesting days at a very well attended congress. We are glad to have been able to participate once again.

The 31st meeting of the European Society of Hypertension in Athens is behind us and we could score with our  validated custo screen 310. With the central blood pressure we are far ahead of our competitors and - especially because of this - we were able to have many interesting discussions.

Also our international sales partner meeting could take place again this year. Highly motivated partners and a top location accompanied us for 2.5 exciting days and you could see that our market presence in many countries is steadily increasing. A big thank you to all participants.

Connecting Digital Health - DMEA is now also a fixed part of our trade fair year. Good conversations and a terrifically attended trade fair dominated the Berlin event this year. Let's hope it stays that way.
