- We ask that all writers attending ECE 2024 gain approval from a speaker/poster presenter prior to quoting or publishing that individual’s scientific results on the internet or through other forms of media.

We are not able to accept registrations for any accompanying people (including spouses and children) at ECE 2024. This is due to health and safety considerations and our adherence to the Pharmaceutical Code of Practice around the promotion of products to non-Health Care Professionals.
For registered delegates who are parents with small infants and babes in arms, there will be a nursing room available close to the main registration area. Please ask the staff at the Registration Desk to show you where this is. There are no childcare facilities onsite at the Congress, therefore childcare should be arranged separately in Stockholm. To comply with insurance and safety requirements, infants must always be held or be in a pushchair. Entry to the nursing room is subject to all regular ECE 2024 Congress entry regulations.
Babies are permitted to enter the Congress venue with their parent/carer to travel to and from the nursing room only. Please note that children and spouses are not permitted in any ECE 2024 session halls, exhibition areas or adjoining spaces.
We thank you for your understanding.
A Certificate of Attendance will be available for all delegates attending the ECE 2024 Congress.
Euro and Swedish SEK are the currencies that are officially recognised as legal tender in Stockholm. ECE 2024 only accepts Euros .
ECE 2024 includes a commercial exhibition. Only registered delegates are allowed in the exhibition area.
The exhibition is an integral part of the Congress and can be directly accessed from a number of session rooms. All catering will be served within the exhibition hall, which also contains the posters and ECE Hubs. Be sure to visit the many companies participating at the Congress, as well as the Patient Experience Zone, European Hormone Day booth and the ESE booth.
All Congress rules are applicable within the exhibition hall and on booths. Exhibiting companies are responsible for their exhibition space and therefore responsible for safety and cleanliness, while the general spaces will be overseen by members of the Congress team.
A First Aid room will be available at the venue. Please come to registration or the ESE stand if you or someone you are with needs assistance.
Hot and cold drinks and lunches are included in the registration fee for a full Congress in-person ticket and will be served daily in the exhibition area. The catering areas will be staffed to serve food and drink during breaks and lunch. This will be a small lunch consisting of a sandwich, fruit and sweet snack. Water is available throughout the Congress venue, and we encourage you to bring your reusable bottle. There is a small newsagents/shop onsite if you wish to purchase additional food.
Tap water is safe to drink in Sweden, including in the hotels.
The official language of ECE 2024 is English.
There will be a dedicated Room of Silence at ECE 2024.
At ESE we recognise the growing impact our activities and events have on the environment, therefore the printed programme book you will receive in Stockholm will be a lot smaller than previous years. We encourage you to view the abstract list electronically and make full use of the congress platform, where you will also find the Congress e-Bag containing the Meet the Expert Handbook and many other useful resources to support your Congress experience.

We are looking forward to you joining us for ECE 2024, which will be taking place in the wonderful city of Stockholm! We would like to help you make the most of your visit and travel around the city with confidence, so we have created this guide to ensure you have a safe and smooth journey before, during and after the Congress.
Getting to ECE 2024
ECE 2024 Congress Centre
Stockholmsmässan Mässvägen 1, 125 30 Älvsjö, Sweden.
From Stockholm Arlanda Airport to Stockholm City Centre:
We encourage all attendees to travel by public transport where possible. Stockholm Central station is only 10 minutes on the train to the city centre.
The Headquarters Hotel (HQ) is adjoining the Stockholmsmassan Congress Centre.
Arlanda Express Train:
The quickest way to reach Stockholm City Centre from Arlanda Airport is by taking the Arlanda Express train. The train departs directly from the airport every 5-10 minutes and takes approximately 18 minutes to reach Stockholm City Centre. Tickets can be conveniently purchased online or at the information desk in the arrivals hall, or from the designated ticket machines.
Airport Buses:
Another option is to take an airport bus, such as the Flygbussarna or FlixBus, which connects the airport to various locations in the city. The travel time by bus varies depending on traffic but typically takes around 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Taxi:
Taxis are readily available at the airport, and you can either order one through a ride-sharing app like Uber or pick one up at the taxi rank located directly outside the arrivals area.
From Stockholm City Centre to Stockholmsmässan:
Commuter Train (Stockholms Pendeltåg):
To travel from Stockholm City Centre to Stockholmsmässan, you can take the Stockholms Pendeltåg (Stockholm Commuter Train). The closest train station is Älvsjö station which sits directly outside the congress centre. The journey typically takes around 10 to 15 minutes.
Taxi from Stockholm City Centre:
To ensure you get the best rates, we recommend ordering a taxi through the Uber service on your phone or simply finding one at the taxi rank located directly outside the station. This way, you can easily and comfortably reach Stockholmsmässan without overpaying for your journey.
At ECE 2024 ensuring the privacy and security of your personal data is paramount. In line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we want to inform you about the badge scanning processes we have in place during the event. There are two primary purposes for badge scanning:
CME Certification Collection
To facilitate the issuance of Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits and certificates, we will scan your badge at the entrance of certified sessions. This process is essential for tracking attendance and ensuring you receive credit for participating in educational activities. Your data will be used solely for the purpose of verifying attendance and issuing certificates. Please note that CME points are not offered at industry sponsored sessions.
Commercial Exhibition/Industry Sponsored Session Attendance
Exhibitors within the commercial exhibition hall and sponsors of satellite symposia, Mini-satellites and ECE Hub sessions may request to scan your badge. In this case, by agreeing to have your badge scanned, you are agreeing to share your name, email address and country information directly with the sponsor/exhibitor. This information can be used by the sponsor/exhibitor to send further details or follow-up information after the Congress. Please note that scanning by company representatives or agencies is optional and subject to your consent.
For CME Certification Collection, scanning is mandatory to receive certification. By attending these sessions, you agree to have your badge scanned for this purpose.
For industry sessions and commercial exhibition, badge scanning is entirely voluntary. You will be asked for your consent before your badge is scanned, ensuring you have control over the sharing of your contact information.
All data collected through badge scanning is processed in accordance with GDPR guidelines. We take your privacy seriously and implement stringent measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration.
We are committed to ensuring a seamless and secure experience for all attendees. If you have any questions or need further clarification on our badge scanning processes, please visit the ECE 2024 event team at the organisers office or email to ece2024@endocrinology.org
