Travel support relies solely on very limited funds, which may become available through sponsors. Request shall be made after registration at the e-mail conference address.

Invitation letters to obtain a French visa shall be requested to the workshop secretary by e-mail as soon as the registration is performed.

•A welcome cocktail on the evening of the first day of the conference at the BNF.

•Cocktail and conference dinner during the celebration of the 10th anniversary of launch.

Participants will have to pay for their accompanying persons at the social events at the moment of the registration payment.


Museum and cruise tickets are valid for one year with no restrictions on entry time. The two cruises on the 17 October afternoon that will allow comfortable participation to the celebration dinner are those at 14:30 and 16:00 (the cruise lasts 1.5 hr).



Accommodation


A list of hotels close to the workshop venue is reported in the Accommodation page along with other general information.


Participants are invited to make their own reservation, well in advance of the conference period, since Paris is a very busy and touristic destination and a very important and popular event is expected to take place in Paris the week before the conference. No reservations will be handled by the LOC.
