Ophthalpreneurs 2025: Sold Out – and Set to Redefine Private Ophthalmology

Ophthalpreneurs^® (OPS) returns for its second edition on April 10-13, 2025, set against the stunning backdrop of Taormina, Italy. The event – now officially sold out – is becoming a cornerstone for private ophthalmologists seeking to elevate their business acumen and reshape the future of patient-pay medicine.

OPS was founded to address a crucial gap: while medical school and scientific societies focus on clinical excellence, the essential non-clinical skills required to run a successful private practice are often overlooked. This summit delivers key insights into finance, marketing, human resources, and strategic positioning, equipping ophthalmologists with the tools to thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape.

The 2025 edition will welcome 250 private ophthalmology stakeholders from Europe, USA, Australia, and Latin America. The agenda extends beyond ophthalmology, incorporating cross-industry perspectives from experts such as:

• Betsy Grunch – a neurosurgeon and social media phenomenon known as #LadySpineDoc (2.3m followers), offering insights on education and digital influence.
• Riccardo Pirrone – the marketing mastermind behind Taffo Funeral Home, revealing bold strategies for engaging audiences on sensitive topics.
• Peter Miekle – an award-winning journalist leading hands-on workshops on presentation skills, media relations, and patient communication.

While refractive and cataract surgery remain key topics, OPS 2025 broadens its scope to include glaucoma, myopia management, tissue addition technology, and dry eye care, reflecting the evolving priorities of modern ophthalmology practices.

New for this year is the TechTalks workshop (April 11-13), designed especially for technicians and office staff, focusing on workflow optimization, patient interactions, and leadership development – a recognition that a high-performing team is fundamental to a successful practice.

With OPS 2025 at full capacity, those who secured a spot will gain access to an exclusive, forward-thinking community dedicated to shaping the next era of private ophthalmology. For those who missed out, the momentum is building – and OPS is just getting started.
