Many of them will be pleasantly interactive, encouraging discussions between speaker and participants and also between participants. The speakers and the organizing committee will help create a highly interactive environment where participants can casually interact with each other and delve into some unexplored areas of the field. A number of workshops will be organized during the main congress to help participants attend the sessions more conveniently. These sessions are designed to inspire participants to learn novel knowledge while experiencing new devices and medical technologies. The Seoul Congress will hold a must-visit exhibition where participants can have an invaluable opportunity to experience new technologies and medical devices. It will also be an opportunity for them to obtain new skills and network with professionals of the industry. The exhibition will open on the same day the Congress opens. Supported physicians and nurses from resource-limited countries will obtain practically usable knowledge throughout the sessions. During the sessions such as Meet the Experts, Panel Discussions and Workshops, they can share with other participants and field experts medical case studies or difficulties they have faced in their countries. The shared knowledge will be beneficial to not only the supported physicians and nurses, but all the other participants attending the Congress. The organizing committee believes that the scientific program will help reduce the gap between countries in the critical care medicine field. Through this process, we believe the congress will establish itself as a meaningful event in critical care medicine, beloved by the world. 08
