The 33^rd Annual Meeting of the Japanese Association of Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics: CVIT2025
President: Junya Shite, MD (Osaka Saiseikai Nakatsu Hospital)

On behalf of the organizing committee, it is my great honor to welcome you to CVIT2025. The meeting will be held from July 17th (Thursday) to 19th (Saturday), 2025 at Osaka International Convention Center and RIHGA Royal Hotel Osaka. We are excited that, during this period, EXPO 2025 will take place near the conference center. Even though many participants for EXPO 2025 will gather from all over the world, transportations and accommodations should not be a problem because EXPO period is relatively long (6 months) and we have sufficient transportation options as well as plenty of hotels not only in Osaka but also in Kyoto and Kobe.

Nowadays, medical expenses are increasing rapidly and political instability prevails worldwide. How we develop the medical field is a serious question. Additionally, work-life balance for medical staff is a matter of concern. In the field of cardiac intervention, we need to consider not only science but also social contributions, cost effectiveness and SDGs. Hence, we would like to invite EXPO panelists and other non-medical specialists to attend CVIT2025 to discuss the future of interventional development.

Also, on site at the EXPO 2025 field, we will open the CVIT booth from July 15th to 21st, and exhibitions of new catheter devices, demonstrations of PCI simulators, video lectures etc. are planned. You will have the chance to visit the EXPO 2025 fields just next to Universal Studios Japan!

At the CVIT conference, numerous English presentations as well as live demonstrations, designed to stimulate interactivity among participants, will be conducted.

The title of CVIT2025 is “Open the future, CVIT-EXPO“.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in Osaka!
