DIGITAL POSTER PROGRAM
Following an overwhelming response of submissions to the call for abstracts, LASA have introduced a digital poster program that will allow high calibre projects to be showcased as part of this year’s program. Delegates will be able to view the posters on their personal devices and on large digital screens throughout the venue.
The inclusion of digital posters is an integral part of the Congress program and gives presenters a greater opportunity to effectively convey information that may not be possible through a traditional printed poster.
Audience members will be able to contact poster presenters via the LASA Events app, should they wish to discuss your presentation further.

8. The End Game
Consolidation is an emergent theme and there are case examples of providers successfully deploying exit strategies. Organisations seeking to consider the reasons why an organisation is exiting or considering mergers will stimulate further strategic thinking as the entire provider network moves in alignment to what is sustainable and what is viable. We are after your insights into future business planning, experiences of exiting and lessons learn from mergers and acquisitions.
