An article in La Gazzetta dello Sport tells the story of the spirit of our International Conference.
The 33rd edition, scheduled to take place in Athens from April 18 to 20, 2026, represents a meeting point between the medical tradition of ancient Greece and the most advanced innovations in sports science. In this symbolic setting, sports medicine evolves toward a more comprehensive and integrated approach to athlete care.
The central theme of the event is “Return to Performance,” meaning the return to peak performance, not just physical recovery. This concept goes beyond the limits of traditional rehabilitation, setting as its ultimate goal the full restoration of athletic abilities.
The conference, organized in collaboration with FIFA, brings together thousands of experts from around the world, including doctors, researchers, and industry professionals. The goal is to share knowledge and develop new strategies to improve athletes’ recovery.
