Asia meets Switzerland: Building Bridges
Dear Colleagues & Friends,
Join us on 27–28 August 2026 at the Verkehrshaus for two inspiring days dedicated to innovation in spine care. Set on the shores of Lake Lucerne, this year’s meeting offers the perfect blend of scientific excellence, international exchange, and a welcoming summer atmosphere.
Theme 2026: “Asia Meets Switzerland”
Leading experts from Asia and Switzerland will share new perspectives, techniques, and developments shaping the future of spinal surgery. Expect insightful sessions, stimulating discussions, and a program designed to broaden your view of global spine care.
Connect & Exchange
Beyond the lectures, enjoy valuable networking opportunities — including the Networking Dinner on Thursday evening at the Grand Casino Luzern, an exceptional lakeside setting for informal conversation.
Who Is Invited?
Spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, orthopaedic surgeons, pain specialists, researchers, and all professionals dedicated to spine care are warmly welcome.
On behalf of the SGS Board, we look forward to seeing you in Lucerne!
Yours Oliver and Célia.
