ESMO and the Portuguese Society of Oncology (SPO) signed a joint membership agreement in 2014. The aim of the partnership is to promote education and scientific initiatives to the Portuguese oncology community.
ESMO - SPO Agreement
Since 1 December 2014, members of the SPO benefit from a simplified membership application process to join ESMO, avoiding the need for a Sponsor (i.e. details of an ESMO member who supports your application) or the need to provide an up-to-date Curriculum Vitae in English.
Additionally, all SPO members eligible for ESMO membership at the €175 fee, will benefit from a reduced annual ESMO membership fee of €130 – saving €45.
If you are a member of the SPO and eligible to receive this discount, please contact ESMO Membership Services who will update your profile in order for you to benefit from the discounted fee at your next renewal.
