After the success of the Digestives Disorders
Federation 2012 conference, the DDF organising
committee were delighted to announce that the
second conference would take place in 2015. This
is an excellent opportunity for businesses in the
industry to engage with the UK clinical community
and approach their target market. The involvement
of industry in the conference is of the utmost
importance to us. It enables the conference to
provide the best possible platform for the
dissemination of information between professionals
in the field. It also allows us to keep registration fees
to a minimum for approximately 4,500 delegates
who are expected to attend the conference.
This is a major four day international conference in
the vibrant city of London. The ExCel is situated in
a stunning waterfront location, located in the heart
of London’s Royal Docks, and is within easy reach
of central London.

support this innovative and exciting conference,
bringing together the very best in the field of
Digestive Disorders.
This prospectus should provide you with all of the
information you require however, if you wish to
