Lectures with high level of novelty and expertise will stimulate an excellent atmosphere for interaction and discussion of actual questions and their possible answers. The lectures will be simultaneously translated from and to English, German and if required Russian.  

The choice of Berlin as conference site is taking over the symbol of bridging America and Europe, being the gate between East and West and, Berlin is a melt pot of cultures and businesses all over the earth.

Seminaris Campus Hotel Berlin, the “Dahlem Cube” of Helmut Jahn, is a modern conference site with accommodation and excellent connection to public transport.
