This initiative responds to an unmet need to create a “link” among young interventional cardiologists who are a vibrant and essential part of their local national community but with few or no connections to their international interventional colleagues. Through this initiative, Young EAPCI hopes to receive constructive feedback and ideas from its members – an invaluable resource in terms of productivity, enthusiasm and intelligence. Each Young National Ambassador (YNA) will enhance interaction between their national working group (WG) and ourselves, helping our committee to facilitate and actively contribute to initiatives, workshops and programmes by and for the local young interventionalist communities. YNA begins by providing an overview of the different cathlabs at the national level, identifying current fellows and interested mentors and supervisors. This overview is the first step in facilitating the creation of a national network for young interventionalists.

Young EAPCI’s role is to identify the needs of young interventionalists by young interventionalists. Since our creation five years ago, we have organised a wide range of educational activities including tailored sessions at EuroPCR as well as the popular EAPCI Fellows Course.

The future will be built on the mutual experiences of our work together, translating into active and stable national networks that support the growth of educational and professional activities, while at the same time allowing exchange of experience among young peers both locally and at an international level.

As always, communication and networking are the key concepts of this initiative.
