The first Scandinavian Intensivist Meeting (SIM) was held in Helsinki in 2014 as an initiative to strengthen academia in Scandinavian intensive care medicine. The focus was on a thematic, single-session, low-budget meeting with short presentations, plenty of time for discussions, and a full social program. The SIM was held very successfully every second year from 2014 to 2018 in Helsinki and SSAI generously was the economic guarantee. The 2020 meeting planned in Copenhagen had to be canceled due to COVID-19 restrictions. The next SIM will be held from 14 to 16 May 2025 in Copenhagen.

As always, SIM 2025 will focus on a single-track, low-key meeting with interaction, networking, and a full social program. The ACTA foundation generously supports the meeting, which means that SIM is independent of the industry, and the full meeting package for SIM 2025 was only €200 including the full social program. 

All healthcare professionals and academics involved in intensive care medicine are warmly welcomed in Copenhagen on 14-16 May 2025 to be inspired and educated and to network with colleagues and friends. If you have data to share, submit an abstract for presentation, so that we may discuss your work and learn from you.

We’re already hard at work, so stay tuned and watch the deadlines for registration and abstract submission when we get closer to the meeting. In the meantime, feel free to check out the SIM 2025 programme.

Looking forward to meeting you in Copenhagen!
