ISCP Endorsement Benefits

ISCP Endorsement provides meeting organisers with:

  1. The official ISCP logo and written authorisation for its use on the meeting's promotional material and the scientific programme
  2. A sentence indicating that ISCP formally endorses the scientific meeting.

ISCP Endorsement Fees

Meeting endorsements by ISCP will be charged at the following rates:

  1. For meetings initiated by ISCP Members and/or Local Governors and which have no commercial sponsorship: 500 euros
  2. For meetings initiated by ISCP Governors, BOD members, or ISCP members, and receiving a degree of financial support (often involving professional event organisers): 1,000 euros
  3. For any other meetings not fulfilling the criteria indicated under points 1 and 2 above: 2,000 euros
  • Under exceptional circumstances, ISCP may grant official endorsement without charging a fee. Applicants who wish to apply for endorsement fee exemption should indicate this on the application form and contact Lourdes Marenco in writing.
  • Requests for use of the ISCP logo alone must be addressed to Lourdes Marenco by e-mail with full details of the reasons for the request.

Joint Session Submissions

A Joint Session or Symposium is a collaborative event organized between ISCP and another medical or professional society or association. These scientific sessions typically occur during the partnering organization's annual meetings or at special scientific and educational events, either in-person or virtually.

Proposals for hosting a Joint Session are reviewed by ISCP's Meeting Committee, based on the session's scope, programme, learning objectives, and the proposed faculty. All relevant information must be submitted at the time of the request.

Only Joint Sessions that receive formal approval from ISCP will be permitted to use the ISCP logo on materials specifically related to the endorsed session, but not for promoting the entire event.

Joint Sessions are considered a collaborative effort between ISCP and the requesting organization and/or an ISCP Member representing an organization, and therefore there is no fee for submissions. Each session should include at least one ISCP representative delivering a talk alongside an Expert from the partnering organization.

The review process for these type of submissions typically takes between two to three weeks.
