Exhibition stands are placed in the same room where the oral plenary sessions are organized. Outdoor space can be accommodated for the exhibitors wishing to organize live demonstrations during lunch breaks.

Sensitive materials and equipments will be stored in a nearby locked room over the night.

Internet access

WiFi will be available in the conference area. However, we encourage the participants not to use their laptops and mobile phones in the proximity of the Central room, to not disturb the sessions. A “quiet room” will be at your disposal if you have to work during the conference.

Lunch options

The canteen at 5th floor of the Rectorate building can host up to 100 people. Prices are low and the food is good, however the service is not very fast.

Inside the conference area there are several small bars and automatic machines which you can use to have a fast and/or working lunch. We recommend this option if you want to participate to the Live demonstrations.

There are a number of restaurants on Splaiul Independentei (north of Conference center) and Iuliu Maniu Avenue Ave (south border of University campus). Please note that you will need some time to walk there from the conference and back. Also, the service at the restaurants may take a while. Here is a list of some of these options:
