The Scientific Conference

The Scientific Conference part of the SEPAWA Congress focuses on innovative and application-oriented findings and information, according to organisers.

“Unlike the Forum for Innovations, the scientific conference gives the main attention to research aspects. For this reason, we would ask you to refrain from mentioning company, product and trade names,” explain organisers.

“The length of presentations including discussion panels should not exceed 30 minutes. You have the option to choose between giving your lecture in German or English. All presentations will be translated simultaneously.”
