Last week the World Heart Federation had the honour of hosting our biennial World Congress of Cardiology & Cardiovascular Health in Mexico City. Thank you to everyone – from our event organizers and hosts to our esteemed speakers, delegates, exhibitors, sponsors and, of course, WHF members – for making the event so stimulating and inspiring. It was wonderful to see the cardiovascular community coming together around our shared goal of a 25% reduction in premature mortality from cardiovascular disease by 2025.
