Focus on beign a “green” congress
Attending congresses can have a bigger impact on the environment than we might realize. From energy use to travel emissions and waste, traditional events often leave a large ecological footprint. That is why we are focusing on sustainability initiatives to minimize our impact, making the EPOS Annual Meeting greener than ever.
