A Swedish lesson for registration: "total kostnad" means "total cost", and "boka" means "register now!"

Early-Bird Fees End On 1 July

Putting the Schedule Together, Making Room For Socialising

We've got all the speakers we can fit into the programme, and we're putting the schedule together. One priority we have is to give ample opportunity for socialising among the attendees and the speakers. This worked very well at the World Skeptics Conference in Berlin last year, and not so well at a few other conferences we've attended in recent years. So we're aiming for a balance where everybody gets their money's worth in programming, but also generous time to talk to people.

Looking At The Food Selection

We're looking at menu suggestions for the conference meals. Register now not only to get something good to eat, but to get somewhere to sit!
