The SMACC experience begins long before the conference starts, with a registered delegate function on the website that allows you to become part of “smacc-networks”. The networks cater to academic, social, artistic, sporting and lifestyle interests and are aimed at bringing delegates together. Utilising dating site technology you can find new friends from the world-wide critical care community who share your interests. You may want to talk shop or to get a group together to perhaps visit a museum, go for a run together or go to a Chicago Cubs game.

Once you check into The SMACC Hotel, Sheraton Towers, you will immediately be drawn into the SMACC festival experience. The pre-conference workshops will be held at the Sheraton and it will be an off-campus SMACC hub with daily bus transfers to McCormick Place.

Finally registration for the conference is fully inclusive of all coffee breaks, lunch and both the Welcome Reception and the Gala Dinner. This will create ample time to network with colleagues and soak up the atmosphere.

The SMACC Gold Conference in 2014 not only brought together a diverse group of critical care practitioners (Emergency Physicians / Intensivists / Anaesthetists / Rural and Pre-Hospital Specialists / Critical Care Nurses and Paramedics) it united the biggest names from FOAM websites from around the world.

In June 2015 ‘SMACC Chicago’ will be even better.

You spoke and we listened• Intensive care and Anaesthetic content for Critical Care• A fifth concurrent session to make your choices even harder• More critical care Paediatrics• A huge range of pre-conference workshops • More big name speakers from around the world • An expanded SMACC Bar and lounge• Child care facilities on site • Sonowars reborn• A huge exhibition hall where lunch and tea breaks are provided FREE to

delegates in order to enhance the networking opportunities

SMACC Chicago is a not for profit venture and all the content will be recorded and released in serial fashion as part of FOAM in the same way as the SMACC Gold content is currently being released. If you haven’t got into the spirit of SMACC already check out the content on the SMACC Media tab of the website, on the iTunes channel or via all the listed affiliated websites.

We invite you to register for SMACC Chicago and get involved now.

Submit an online abstract, make a video for the #EVO competition, register for Sonowars and get in early to secure one of the limited spots on the pre-conference workshops. Follow us on Twitter @smaccteam (#smaccUS). Help us shape #smaccUS by joining the conversation.

We can’t wait to see you all in Chicago in June 2015.

Sincerely

Roger Harris, Chris Nickson & Oli FlowerOn behalf of the Organising Committee

SMACC Chicago will be more than just the best Critical Care Conference in 2015, it will be a true Festival. A celebration of medical science, patient focused care, innovative ideas and our critical care community.

McCormick Place is the premier convention facility in North America. Located just minutes from downtown Chicago, McCormick Place attracts close to 3 million visitors each year. McCormick Place is comprised of four state-of-the-art buildings: the North and South Buildings, the West Building and Lakeside Center. Together, they form what many consider to be the economic engine that powers the entire convention and tradeshow industry. McCormick Place is committed to creating a great experience for every person, every time!

SMACC will be held in the Lakeside Center, with the plenary sessions taking place in the Arie Crown Theater – a first-class theatre with a capacity of over 4000.

LocationWith towering skyscrapers overlooking tulips on The Magnificent Mile, Opening Day baseball at Wrigley Field, and a stunning Millennium Park beginning to bloom — springtime in Chicago buzzes with energy and excitement.

Whether you’re visiting Chicago for business or pleasure, you can expect to find world-class dining, attractions, entertainment, and hotels and accommodations here in the largest and most-visited city in the Midwest.

If you’re looking for things to do in Chicago, look no further!

Enjoy the great outdoors with a sightseeing tour on the river boats, a play date with the animals at Lincoln Park Zoo or a scenic ride on the Ferris Wheel at Navy Pier. Indoors, unwind at a leisurely pace at a luxurious spa, jet set through spectacular downtown shopping malls or cozy up to a bar for some craft cocktails. In Chicago, dining is an activity in itself, with over 5,500 restaurants that line the culinary landscape and boast star chefs and endless accolades.
