The global urology community is tracking clinical and surgical advances that reshape practice. From November 11 to 14, 2026 Edinburgh hosts SIU Congress 2026 at the EDINBURGH venue, bringing together healthcare professionals focused on urologic diagnosis, treatment and education.
Program focus at SIU Congress 2026
The scientific agenda reflects the society’s learning objectives and spans urinary stone disease management, staging and treatment of urologic cancers, lower urinary tract dysfunction in men and women, and reconstructive surgery topics. Sessions also cover robotic and minimally invasive techniques, male infertility and sexual health, pediatric urology, emerging imaging modalities for cancer management and updates in clinical guidelines. The program includes training opportunities for residents and structured mentoring activities.
An industry and B2B strand is part of the event, with dedicated elements for sponsors and exhibitors to engage clinical audiences.
Attendee profile and industry presence
Clinical urologists, surgical teams, urology-focused radiologists and specialized nursing staff form the core audience. Industry participants typically include manufacturers of surgical instruments, imaging technology providers and vendors of robotic surgical solutions. The congress provides exhibition and sponsorship formats aimed at technical dialogue between companies and clinical institutions.
Practical B2B outreach tactics
- Set measurable goals before the event and segment target contacts by clinical specialty or decision-making role.
- Reach out ahead of time using the exhibitor directory or the congress platform to schedule 20-minute meetings with clear agendas.
- Prepare technical collateral oriented to clinicians: evidence summaries, product comparisons and concise case reports.
- Use demos that require minimal logistics and ensure you can show clinical value quickly during short meetings.
- Track meeting outcomes to follow up effectively after the congress.
Visitor logistics highlights
The congress site includes pages for Registration, Housing and the Scientific Programme as well as resources for abstract submission, hands-on surgical courses and training scholarships. Those planning to attend should consult the official channels for registration procedures and available educational offerings.
Final note and next steps
For companies and clinical teams, 2026 is an opportunity to position technical solutions around robotic surgery, oncologic imaging and stone disease management.
