The RISE meeting at ESC Congress was amazing. It focused on professional development for women in cardiology in a seminar-type format with hands-on role-playing sessions. Such an inspiring and practical experience – thank you very much to the organisers!

The second edition of the RISE Conference was phenomenal! I left the conference with a full heart, confidence and many tools to navigate the cardio world as a woman!

I could not imagine a better start to this year’s ESC Congress in London than with RISE @ ESC Congress 2024. Thank you Women As One and the European Society of Cardiology for this absolutely amazing day. This kind of perfectly framed and sincere female empowerment makes me see a bright future a lot clearer. I can’t wait for the next RISE event to come.

I think RISE is really important because, as a woman from a lower-middle-income country, getting inspired and learning from other women and other leaders is really crucial in our journey.

RISE is important for me as a female cardiologist and a leader in this field. As a mid-career cardiologist, I’m still trying to find a balance and trying to work out what’s important, what do I do, where to go from here, how do I make a difference now, and where is the lift that I could do? So I thought I’d come and listen to the leaders.
