Location The conference will be held in Lisbon, Portugal at the IST Congress Center.
The capital of Portugal since its conquest from the Moor in 1147, Lisbon is a legendary city with over 20 centuries of History. Lisbon, also Known as the "town of seven hills", due to its excellent location, washed is the west by the Atlantic Ocean, offers a moderate climate. Travel around Lisbon by using its trams and funiculars, or the modern metro, where the stations are authentic underground works of arts. Admire the Portuguese pavements, making a Lisbon walk a unique experience, and the houses covered in tiles and with wrought-iron verandas. Follow the smell of roast chestnuts during Autumn and Winter; and revel in the taste. Go up one of the hills to the view points and look over the city. Lisbon is one of the European capitals where night is enjoyed to the full. The riverside, with its wealth of pavement cafés, bars and discos or in the more traditional Bairro Alto, have a drink and a dance. In the Alfama and Bairro Alto, listen to fado, songs from Portuguese soul, played here in the Lisbon style. Lisbon has countless places of interest, perfectly marrying the old with the new. It is also known for the hospitality of its people |
