For those who are waiting for the right moment to register, seize this opportunity. If your organization is considering to have more than 5
delegates -we offer group discounts – or attend the congress without the gala-dinner and the farewell reception, you now have an option.

The World Congress is also an excellent occasion to showcase your products and services. Please let us know if you want to reserve an
exhibition stall. There are innumerable benefits and we can offer you tailor-made fees and services.
