“Proven & New” We experienced this year a new two-day format of the 24th SGS Annual Meeting. On the 29th of August 2024, we launched for the very first time a joint meeting with the Swiss Society of Interventional Pain Management (SSIPM) under the motto of “Learning from each other”. On the 30th of August 2024, we had the annual meeting in its well-known format. This year’s focus was on “Value-based Spine Care”, with three core sessions highlighting algorithms and techniques adding value into Spine Care:

• Translating Guidelines into clinical practice
• Trauma in Aging Spine (AO Spine Joint Session)
• Innovation in Spine Care: Vision 2030 (AI/VR/Robotics)

“Wine, Dine & Spine on the Rhine” Our networking evening on the 29th of August will took place on the cruise ship “MS Christian Merian” on the Rhine. We had the pleasure of inviting you to share with us this unique opportunity spending an evening in a relaxed atmosphere. The SGS serves as the connective tissue among the various spine surgery specialties, playing a pivotal role in shaping guidelines in cooperation with the European and Global Spine Societies. We thank you for having taken part in our debates and strengthening our community at the 24th SGS Annual Meeting.
