ESC Congress 2024 London
Showcase
Innovative Congress Solutions
Creating memorable and impactful experiences is an essential factor for congress organisers. So, when ACS was invited to assist in enhancing the overall attendee experience through open session rooms – we were delighted to explore innovative solutions designed to increase visibility, elevate engagement, and leave a lasting impression on all participants.
The Challenge
The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) wanted open, inviting congress session rooms. Rooms that were not isolated from the rest of the congress. The biggest challenge in opening up these areas is how to control the acoustics within the room. Our AV specialists worked tirelessly with acoustic consultants to find the optimal sound solutions, and developed the ‘Sound Absorbing Cylinders’ – large acoustic cylinders that when strategically hung, reduce unwanted noise from entering the room, and together with carefully placed glass walls amplify what matters most – the voices of the speakers.
Commitment to Innovation
Our commitment to innovation means that we are continuously refining how sound resonates within a room and we offer acoustic solutions that include sound-damping material such as curtains, carpets and furniture. These new Sound Absorbing Cylinders have been crafted from sustainable felt, made from recycled plastic bottles. So, these additions to our acoustic portfolio increase the acoustic performance and visual appeal of a sessions room, and also add a sustainable value to an event.
