Bagde collection will be available at the conference venue from 8:30 on both conference days. Badges will be issued upon providing personal identification document. Bagdes can not be collected by the third person (friends, colleagues, etc.).

The security of participants is very important to the organisers.

The conference badge will be issued to conference guests only after showing one’s ID card or Passport. Due to the new GDP regulation we cannot issue the accreditation badge to 3rd parties (colleagues, etc.) without being shown the respective person’s ID card or Passport. Please note that the badge is non-transferable and any violation of this policy may result in expulsion from the conference.

For security reasons, guests are asked to carry their badges with them at all times, including social events. During the conference, guests are asked to carry their personal ID cards or passport with them at all times – upon arrival at the conference venue, security personnel might ask guests to show their personal ID or passport as well.

Please wear your badge so it is clearly visible.

Prohibited items: explosive and incendiary materials; stunning devices, flammable items (except lighters); pepper spray, tear gas and other gasses and pressure containers; knives and objects with a sharp point or sharp edge; firearms (including firearm replicas and firearm parts) and ammunition. If requested by security be prepared to provide your personal belongings for inspection.
