Program

Below is the final program of the conference, 98% complete.  The dates on the session cards are not relevant; please refer to the day and time above the cards.

I have been to many conferences that were well organized, I have been to many conferences that were a good learning experience, I have been to many conferences that were a lot of fun…   But to go to a conference that achieves ALL THREE is a compliment to your skill and dedication!       — Nigel Saych, Eindhoven
