Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that we welcome you to BIASS 2027 – Barcelona International Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery, a meeting that has become much more than a scientific event. BIASS is a place where surgery, knowledge, experience, friendship, and passion for shoulder surgery come together.

The philosophy of BIASS remains unchanged:

At the heart of our course are live surgeries, performed by internationally renowned surgeons, offering a unique opportunity to share surgical techniques, decision-making, challenges, and practical solutions in real time. These will be complemented by inspiring lectures, interactive sessions, and open discussions led by world-class experts representing all five continents.

Our ambition is not simply to show how we operate, but to understand why we make our decisions, learn from each other, and challenge our own beliefs.

BIASS will be held at the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower, conveniently located next to Bellvitge University Hospital, where our live surgeries will take place. This exceptional setting allows us to bring the operating room and the conference hall closer than ever, creating a truly immersive educational experience. The venue is also approximately 15 minutes from both Barcelona city centre and Barcelona–El Prat Airport.

And, of course, BIASS would not be BIASS without Barcelona. Beyond the operating room and scientific sessions, we invite you to enjoy the warmth, hospitality, gastronomy, culture, and vibrant spirit of our city. Barcelona provides the perfect setting to strengthen professional relationships and, above all, friendships that extend far beyond the meeting itself.

Our goal is simple: to leave BIASS not only as better shoulder surgeons, but also with new ideas, new perspectives, and old and new friends.

We look forward to welcoming you to Barcelona for another unforgettable edition of BIASS, where world-class shoulder surgery meets open minds, honest discussions, and genuine friendship.
