This year the American Orthotic and Prosthetic Association (AOPA) National Assembly took place in San Diego, California where Steeper USA exhibited their range of upper limb components and cosmesis, and shortly after this Steeper Group exhibited at the International Society for Prosthetics and Orthotics (ISPO) World Congress which took place in Kobe, Japan.

AOPA 2019, held between the 25th and 28th September, saw nearly 2400 visitors from the orthotics and prosthetics profession gather for its 102nd National Assembly. Attendees enjoyed numerous educational opportunities throughout the assembly including the chance to view Steeper USA's range of cosmetic gloves and Skinergy Plus cosmesis, which proved ever popular with clinicians, technicians and users who visited the booth. Kristine Yeagley, US Operations Manager, said: “AOPA was a great success with many attendees stopping to check out the range of cosmeses we offer and to discuss possible lightweight elbow solutions."

Between the 5th and 9th of October, Steeper Group attended the ISPO World Congress. This annual event was a great opportunity to showcase our upper limb portfolio. Carl Chatfield, Products Sales Director said "ISPO was a fantastic opportunity to increase awareness of Steeper products in the Asian market. At the same time, ISPO provided a great location to maintain relationships with existing distributors and create new customers from all around the world."  The Espire Pro Elbow by College Park was also on display at the Steeper stand and attracted great attention due to its anatomical design. Our hyper realistic custom silicone range was showcased with both upper and lower limb examples for attendees to view and feel - they were impressed by the level of detail which can be achieved.

Overall, both events were a great success. A huge thank you to everyone who attended and came to visit us at our stands. If you would like more information about upcoming conferences, please contact [email protected] or follow us on social media and sign up to our newsletter for new product updates.
