A paid service of NSpine, not editorial contentLast checked 8 November 2026

NSpine service. This page describes a paid service of NSpine Ltd and NSpine GmbH, the publishers of Spinal Frontiers. It is not editorial content.

Why NSpine

  • We know spine. Our team includes spine surgeons and former spine theatre nurses. We understand the content, the abstracts, the instruments and the people, so planning conversations start at the right level.
  • Fully independent. NSpine answers to no society, authority or company. We are free to work with anyone and keep the science objective.
  • One team for everything. Venue, faculty, travel, hotels, registration, sponsors, accounting, marketing, CME and MedTech Europe compliance, from first plan to final report.
  • Terms built around you. We design the budget and the payment model with you, on fair and transparent terms. Our overheads are lean, which keeps our terms competitive.
  • Your brand or ours. Most clients keep their own event identity, with NSpine as a discreet “Powered by NSpine” credit. Some prefer to make it an NSpine event. You choose.

For surgeons and surgeon groups

Starting your own course or meeting alongside a full clinical job is daunting. NSpine gives you an independent platform and takes you through the whole process: format, budget, faculty, venue, registration and delivery. You decide how much you do yourself; we fill every gap.

For medtech companies

Outsource your surgeon training, product courses or regional education programme to a team that has run spine labs and meetings for years. You set the agenda and choose the faculty; we deliver the event under your brand.

We do this within our own courses too: we frequently run partnership courses for young medtech companies within our cadaveric course in Strasbourg.

Training

Hands-on labs

Cadaveric or high-fidelity simulation labs, run to your agenda. We handle faculty, logistics, venue and specimens or models.

Programmes

One event or a whole portfolio

A single launch course, or your full training calendar across countries, with one partner and one invoice.

Efficiency

Shared resources, if you want them

Where it suits you, we can share lab facilities between non-competing courses run back to back, which lowers the cost for everyone. Never required.

  • International delivery: conferences and simulation courses almost anywhere; cadaveric labs wherever local law allows.
  • Compliance on request: MedTech Europe rules, written agreements with healthcare professionals and fair-market-value fees.
  • Confidential: NDAs on request, and we keep your plans and contacts away from other clients.
  • A free, individual quote before you commit, based on complexity and location.
  • Reports afterwards: attendance, delegate feedback and outcomes.

Expert advisory meetings

When you need structured input from experienced spine surgeons, for example on usability, a market or an instrument, NSpine can organise the advisory meeting for you: the experts you choose, travel, venue, logistics and confidentiality, in line with the MedTech Europe Code of Ethical Business Practice.

Details on enquiry.

For societies and conferences

Professional congress management for small and mid-sized spine meetings, run by people from the field. Your society keeps full control of the science, the brand and its members' data.

  • Abstract submission and review, member registration rates, industry exhibition and hybrid or recorded sessions.
  • Transparent accounts and a business plan built for your meeting, with clear reports to your board and treasurer.
  • Existing venues and sponsors are kept wherever possible. A single edition is fine; no multi-year contract is needed.
  • We plan dates and scope with you so your meeting does not clash with NSpine events or other major meetings.
  • Our reach among spine surgeons can add to your society's own audience.

Questions we are asked

Who carries the financial risk?

We build the budget, format and funding with you and design them to keep your risk as low as possible. If money gets tight, we work through it with you.

How is NSpine paid?

We offer fee-based, percentage-based and profit-share models, and choose with you the one that fits your meeting.

Who owns the event?

We agree it openly at the start. It can stay entirely yours, with NSpine in the background, or become an NSpine event if you prefer.

Do you find sponsors and handle compliance?

Yes. We approach sponsors through our network, alongside your local contacts, and we handle CME accreditation and MedTech Europe compliance, including Conference Vetting System submissions.

How far ahead should we start?

Ideally a year ahead for a conference. Smaller meetings can work to a shorter timeline.

Can we speak to people you have worked with?

Yes. We can put you in touch with past organisers.
