Venue and Travel Information

THE VENUE

The symposium will take place at Schloß Etelsen, Bremen, Germany from the 17th - 19th October 2016.

The authentically restored Etelsen castle (Schloß Etelsen) is from the 19th century and now functions as a seminar and conference hotel. It is a landmark of the Bildungswerk der Niedersächsischen Wirtschaft and provides the right combination of special ambiance and facilities for a successful workshop. The castle is surrounded by an extensive park/garden landscape which will allow us to go for walks and provides opportunities for joggers to relax.
