Documentation

Expect photo, audio and/or recordings before, during, even after the conference for purposes of documentation. Accordingly, your participation in the conference presupposes your consent that recordings of you might be published.

Eco-friendly praxis

We have also requested the hotel catering to employ sustainable servicing procedures and tableware towards this end.
