School Venue

The sessions will take place at the modern Conference Center of the Cabildo Insular de Tenerife (Island's local authority), within walking distance from the hotel where participants will be accommodated (see here a map showing the location of the hotel and the Conference Center).

The Conference Center is modern and of recent construction and is set within the Parque Taoro on one of the hills overlooking the center of the town. Apart from the Conference Center, the park contains various hotels and the well known Casino Taoro (see a map of the area).

This Conference Center will have full facilities for conference users including:

  • A large conference hall.
  • A small computing center with high-speed links. This will be installed by the IAC for the conference and will be only be available during the conference days.
  • Ample poster area for poster presentations. Individual panels (1x1 m) will be provided.
  • Various coin operated telephones outside the conference room. These can receive calls from outside.
  • Slide, transparency, video and computer display facilities. Special needs can be catered for if we are advised well in advance. The VTR at the Conference Center is designed to play both PAL and NTSC systems.
  • Morning and afternoon coffe breaks will be held outside the Conference Center in the open air. In the case of poor weather, there is enough space to move the coffe breaks inside.
