Spink has been appointed by The European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) to manage communications for its 50th annual congress, which will be held later this year in Prague.
ESPGHAN’s annual congress is attended by over 4,000 delegates and globally attracts key opinion leaders in the field of paediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition.
Managing relations with the medical trade and global press, Spink will be running an on-site and online press office and a social media campaign to highlight key content from the congress.
Jo Spink, director at Spink, said: “Paediatric digestive health receives limited exposure and is under-funded so we are looking forward to the opportunity of using our experience and expertise to strengthen ESPGHAN’s communications and presence in Europe, reaching out to a wider audience and extending their political influence.”
The healthcare PR agency has previously managed all communications for United European Gastroenterology (UEG), making this the second major gastroenterology client the firm has won in the past three years.
