Registration for our second Annual Congress of 2022 in Dubrovnik, Croatia is now open with the theme: ‘Resilience in the face of adversity’.

Held at the Rixos Premium Dubrovnik, there will be 2 days of technical sessions (10 hours for CPE) with expert keynote speakers and panel discussions, as well as the usual ancillary meetings, networking opportunities and our wonderful Gala Dinner.

The city of Dubrovnik lies in the far south of the arc that forms Croatian soil, located on the thin coastal strip between the high hills and the calmness of the Adriatic sea. Dubrovnik is filled with outstanding natural beauty and many efforts have been made to preserve its varied ecological sites. The city offers an astonishingly clear blue sea, unique flora and fauna, scenic sunsets and a warm Mediterranean climate.

Counting only about 30,000 people, Dubrovnik is the cultural and social centre of the region, the County of Dubrovnik-Neretva and the most famous city of Croatia.

Known as “The Pearl of the Adriatic”, the city of Dubrovnik is featured by the fairytale appearance of the Old Town (a World Heritage site) and its white stone defensive walls with mighty forts and towers. More than two-thirds of the Old Town’s buildings suffered bomb damage and were entirely rebuilt after the Croatian War of Independence. Dubrovnik’s white walls reflect survival and resilience, a message of hope.
