ASPiH will celebrate its 15^th anniversary this year. Over this period of time, ASPiH has been at the forefront of advancing the utilisation of simulation-based education and also demonstrating the impact of these activities across the UK and Ireland and (more widely). This year’s conference will be a celebration of what has been achieved in the last 15 years and it will also create a platform to discuss where the simulation community might go next.

This year’s conference will be held at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre from Sunday 3^rd November – Tuesday 5^th November. Simulation is being increasingly utilised in new and innovative ways and the exhibition hall at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre will create a vibrant and engaging space to allow you to showcase your products and educational programmes and to create strong networking opportunities and new collaborations.

There were many successes from last year's conference in Brighton which we wanted to roll over into this year’s conference in Edinburgh. The option to sponsor simulation technicians to attend last year’s conference was a huge success as it supported over 60 simulation technicians to join the conference in Brighton. Feedback from simulation technicians was overwhelmingly positive with the majority saying that they would not be able to attend this conference without this financial support. We are inviting an organisation to sponsor simulation technicians to attend this year’s conference in Edinburgh. 

We will be running the sustainability forum in the exhibition hall again this year to ensure a good foot fall at your stand. The sustainability forum has been rebranded as the Innovation Space this year and is a sponsorship option.

Last year, we welcomed five new exhibitors to Brighton as part of the ‘New To ASPiH’ sponsorship option. The ’New to ASPiH’ sponsorship option is available this year and we want to increase the range of new exhibitors in the exhibition hall for this conference. If you know of any companies that might want to join us in Edinburgh for their first ASPiH conference, then please feel free to share this sponsorship pack with them.

The sponsorship pack for the 2024 ASPiH conference presents a range of options to allow your organisation to create the right conference presence.
