World Sepsis Congress is free because its mission is to bring knowledge about sepsis to all parts of the world, easily accessible and, well, free of charge. WSC is funded with the help of our Sponsors, whom we sincerely thank for their support. Please note that sponsors do not influence the program, content, or the choice of speakers in any way.
