Why Exhibit
The premier US meeting for gynecologic oncology: every gyn-onc surgeon in the country either attends or follows SGO proceedings. Critical venue for robotic surgery platforms, genomic diagnostics, immunotherapy, and MIS instruments used in gynecologic cancer care.
Why Skip
Narrow specialty (gyn-onc only, not general OB-GYN). If your device serves broader women's health or general surgery, ACOG delivers 5x the audience. Puerto Rico location in 2026 adds travel cost and logistics for exhibitors shipping booth materials.
What should exhibitors know before SGO?
San Juan location for 2026 is unusual. Most years are mainland US cities. Factor in shipping logistics for booth materials to PR. Strong pharma/diagnostics presence on the exhibit floor.

How we score
Six weighted factors, each scored on a 0 to 100 rubric then normalized to a 7.0 to 10.0 band. Every show on this list cleared a relevance bar to be included, so 7.0 is the floor; the number tells you how far the leaders pull ahead. A factor we cannot source is left unscored rather than estimated, and the overall score above was set before any figure behind it was withdrawn.
Standout (9.2): 60% purchasing authority, 35:1 attendee ratio, and large-scale event.
Not scored on cost: this organizer publishes no booth price we can link to.
Strong (8.1): exhibitor count disclosed, and attendee purchasing-authority data published.
Solid (7.3): non-union venue (simpler, cheaper move-in) and purpose-built convention venue.
Strong (8.3): honest "who should skip" guidance, the flagship / largest show in its niche, and ~100 exhibitors to scout.
Strong (8.5): large and well-established.
