Are you coming to Portorož? After a rainy month of May, the weather on the Slovenian coast is getting pleasantly warm and sunny. Two weeks away from the start of the 8ECM, many small steps towards the congress are being made every day. Despite the 8ECM being moved online, we are putting great effort into making at least some of the events also available live during the week of the 8ECM. While observing all health and security measures, we are planning several activities at the 8ECM venue Congress centre Bernardin, Portorož:
- A welcome evening event on Sunday, 20 June.
- Registration point and volunteers, providing information and technical support.
- One coffee break offered during the day in the lobby area.
- Several free exhibitions at the 8ECM venue
- Some lecture rooms available for meetings in smaller groups, lecture screenings or simply to provide a space to deliver your lecture online.
In order to book accommodation, please find additional information at the 8ECM website.
You can also find the latest information on border crossing to Slovenia and current Covid-19 regulations in Slovenia.
We look forward to welcoming you at the 8ECM – either online or in person!

8ECM welcome packages are ready!
With the help of dedicated volunteers, about 1500 welcome packages for registered participants were prepared during the last week.
The packages will be delivered to 8ECM participants by regular mail in a few days, except to those participants who expressed their intention to come to Portorož in person in the online registration form.
