As many other peer organisations, ICSTI had to make significant changes to the plans for our Annual Event 2020. Furthermore, organisational changes led us to also abstain from holding the online expended version of our Member-to-Member sessions that we had considered having in lieu of the live conference originally scheduled.
We deeply apologize for this as we are clearly aware that it will miss the most important elements of an ICSTI event : the presentations from members, the briefing on novel technologies and trends and the time for networking, but we clearly trust that we will have the pleasure to meet you all again at our face-to-face meetings with workshops in 2021.
PLEASE NOTE : ICSTI will hold a virtual General Assembly reserved for members at the beginning of December 2020. All details to join this online meeting will be released in the next weeks.

As we face unprecedented circumstances with the Covid-19 global outbreak, we have decided to postpone the ICSTI Annual Event 2020 planned to be held on 21-22 August in Ireland. This was no easy choice but the unpredictable progression of the pandemic and the varied and evolving social measures and travel restrictions made the decision inevitable.
It is most disappointing to forfeit the opportunity for our delegates to share ideas and initiatives in in-person exchanges. However, we will explore the possibilities for holding an event which could take the format of a distant meeting later in the year.
WE WILL PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS AS SOON AS THEY ARE AVAILABLE.
