Planning continues in anticipation of our travel to Almhult, Sweden for our International Symposium on October 26-27, 2023 - hosted by IKEA.
The Call for Proposals is now closed and submissions are under review. Board Member Rod Freeman will be working with the Executive Committee to coordinate the content planning with our volunteer planning committee members.
It’s not too early to start thinking about global safety issues that you believe should be discussed in anticipation of our Call for Proposals. Also, we will be seeking Sponsors and Exhibitors for the International Symposium, so please keep these opportunities in mind as you consider budgets going forward into 2023. We are working with IKEA on logistics, which will include a pre symposium ICPHSO Welcome Reception at the IKEA Hotel; an evening IKEA hosted Welcome Dinner, Lab and Museum tours before and after the conference. ICPHSO is solely responsible for the content and the development of the agenda.
We appreciate the support provided by Board Member Vladimir Brajkovic, and others from IKEA, as we long-distance plan the details of holding the conference in Sweden.
A block of rooms are reserved for ICPHSO Attendees at the IKEA Hotel. Room availability is limited so be sure to make your travel plans early. We look forward to seeing you in Almhult, Sweden.
