The disruptive Covid-19 times imposed us significant changes to ICSTI 2020’s organisation. As a result, we are now planning to turn to a ‘virtual’ event in lieu of our live conference originally scheduled.
This online event could consist in an expanded version of the Member-to-Member (MtM) sessions that have proved so successful at recent conferences.

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.
