Dear Colleagues and Friends,

We are very pleased to announce that Latin America is enthusiastically preparing to receive the XXI World Congress of the International Union of Phlebology. This emblematic event symbolizes the strength and union of our ties, stronger than ever, ready to offer an unforgettable experience in the beautiful city of Buenos Aires.

The vibrant energy of Latin American Phlebology is now expressed in Buenos Aires, spreading from Tierra del Fuego in Chile to Tijuana in Mexico. We are at a crucial stage to benefit from the light of Phlebological and Lymphological scientific knowledge worldwide.

This XXI World Congress of the International Union of Phlebology and Lymphology marks the return of this prestigious event to Latin America.

Dear colleagues, we are sure that the waiting has been worth it. More than 23 societies have been united, grown and gathering together make this congress the most inclusive in the history of our organization.

We extend a cordial invitation to join us in Buenos Aires in 2025. We are going to share knowledge, innovations and foster new collaborations that will certainly enrich our practice and understanding of Phlebology and Lymphology.

We look forward to your valuable presence and participation.

Welcoming Words

Latin American societies will brainstorm on common regional issues.

This Organizing Committee is pleased to receive such distinguished personalities that together with the national and Latin American referents will give this event the prestige which has distinguished it through the years.

“UIPeople”

Why we ALL are Buenos Aires 2025

Why we ALL are UIP

“We ALL are Buenos Aires 2025” is the line chosen for this historical event and it is a clear statement related to one of the main values promoted by the International Union of Phlebology (UIP)

Inclusiveness

In Buenos Aires, the meeting doors of “THE” WORLD Society dedicated to Phlebology and Lymphology will be fully open to ALL the healthcare professionals dedicated to vein lymphatic practice..and not “only”. Indeed, the event is designed to offer the unique chance of a bird-eye view on ALL the evidence-based met and unmet needs in the field, together with the opportunity to reach out to related sectors, inside and outside the healthcare professional world. Since last years, the actions UIP has been taking focus on enhancing the scientific quality and the educational opportunities, while providing advocacy and veinlymphatic awareness for both the colleagues and patients around the globe.

These are also the “pillars” of the 2025 World Congress, a “house” where ALL the attendees can feel comfortable in expressing their contribution, as long as moral and appropriate. It’s our deepest pleasure to notice how this call to action has been already so well received by so many colleagues from all continents. The only way in which we can really accomplish the UIP mission of properly representing the Vein and Lymphatic world is by pro-actively co-working ALL together, following the highest Ethics and Expertise.

Last but not least, I’d like to profoundly thank the Latam hosting team: the top quality of the initiative is guaranteed by the more than significant experience of the Latin America Organizers, who have been repeatedly showcasing international educational events of top technical quality, enriched by the deepest and most pleasant humane touch. A special care has been put in lowering the registration fee in order to make the Congress accessible to ALL. This decision goes with many other opportunities of global engagement that will occur at Buenos Aires 2025 World Congress:

the meeting will represent literally an “event” in UIP history considering that, in order to accomplish the UIP mission according to its deepest values of quality, inclusiveness and ethics, it will be the first World Congress managed directly by the UIP, in collaboration with the hosting societies.

Looking forward to welcoming ALL the ones promoting professional, personal, scientific and moral appropriateness, I remain at full disposal of ALL “U.I.P.eople” and of ALL the ones who will like to get involved with the Phlebology & Lymphology World

Collaboration Packages

We propose the following collaboration packages, which allow
a higher return on investment, since the cost of the set of
service options offered is lower than the contracting of the
same services individually, in addition to obtaining a return on
the contribution through free registrations (scholarships).

These registrations will be granted to professionals exclusively
by the industry, which must draw up a list of scholarship
holders and submit it to the authorities of the event. A
Deadline of delivery is established by categories of Sponsors,
starting with the main sponsors who have priority of choice.
No repetition of professionals will be allowed in the list of
scholarship recipients. In this way we ensure that each
professional receives only one scholarship and that it does not
lose the value and recognition it deserves.
