Opening ceremony and welcome reception
We look forward to having our esteemed participants join us for the 17th EAPD Congress opening ceremony, which will take place on June 12th at the prestigious Gothia Towers Complex, starting at 18:30 CET. Following the opening ceremony, join us for our Congress welcome reception, held in collaboration with the City of Gothenburg and Region Västra Götaland.
The Opening Ceremony is generously sponsored by the Convention Bureau of Gothenburg, an organization dedicated to promoting and facilitating conferences, meetings, and events in Gothenburg, Sweden. It serves as a central point of contact for event organizers, offering support in planning, logistics, and promotion. The bureau collaborates with local businesses, venues, and stakeholders to ensure successful and impactful gatherings in the city.
Embracing the ethos of sustainability that defines Gothenburg as a city, we are looking forward to hosting the welcome reception of the 17th EAPD Congress as an alcohol-free event. In alignment with our dedication to environmental stewardship and promoting a healthy, inclusive environment, this decision underscores the Organisers’ commitment to mitigating any adverse effects on both our surroundings and the well-being of our participants.
Together, let’s celebrate responsibly, fostering a gathering that not only enriches our professional discourse but also leaves a positive footprint on our planet and community!
