A digital poster, dubbed ePoster by Convene Magazine (December 2006), is the logical extension of abstract management systems. By taking the content submitted by researchers to the academic or profession conference peer review process and creating a digital version of a single page poster, audio video and software companies seek to eliminate the time consuming and costly process of paper poster production.

These digital versions of presentations offer several advantages over their physical counterparts including: convention or congress cost savings, multimedia additions to the traditional format, archival research capabilities, and time savings to the presenters.

The Congress of Neurologic Surgeons believes that they were the first medical association to adopt the digital poster format in two dimensional multimedia presentations of medical research for some 700 poster session researchers (see www.neurosurgeon.org).
