CENTRAL LOCATION IN EUROPE

Excellent communications and connections will bring you to the lovely, picturesque town of Piran. A peaceful Mediterranean gem full of rich history and romantic medieval streets. 

The Bernardin resort lies just outside of Piran and if you continue the walk along the beach, you will reach Portorož, a resort city since the 13th century. 

The Trieste, Ljubljana, Pula, and Venice airports are in the vicinity and we have arranged special prices with airport shuttle services for the conference. 

NEW CONCEPT OF ECM

Organised in a small town with an academic tradition and support of the local academic community, with all facilities within walking distance.

Math societies from the region are participating in the organisation and the congress will be held in a modern and spacious congress centre with plenty of accommodation facilities.

A WIDE LIST OF ACCOMPANYING EVENTS

Planned accompanying events include scientific events, social events, exhibitions, and events for popularising mathematics.

A FAMILY FRIENDLY EVENT 

Activities such as dolphin watching, a biodiversity camp, human-computer interaction workshops, math workshops for different age groups, and other activities provided in different languages will be available for your family members that join you for the trip.  

SATELLITE EVENTS

Satellite events covering different topics will be organised in the region before and after the event.
