Prague
won the candidacy for the 21st European Congress of Biomechanics
(ESB), which will be held in 2015.
"We
are very pleased to have worked with the Czech biomechanical society
from the very beginning of the entire project and thus we could
significantly contribute to the candidacy. After selecting PCO, which
is the company CZECH-IN, the presentation of Prague took place in
Lisbon and turned out very successfully," said to obtaining the
congress Director of Prague Convention Bureau Lenka Žlebková.
Several
candidates were invited to the Annual Board Meeting held during the
18th Congress of the European Society of Biomechanics in Lisbon on
July 1 - 4 July 2012 to present their candidacies for the
organization of the 21st ESB Congress in 2015. The candidates from
France (Paris) and Austria (Graz) could, unlike the Czech Republic,
rely on an extensive network of researchers. However, based on a
well-prepared, comprehensive and compelling presentation, the Board
chose the Czech Republic and its capital as the next destination to
host the meeting.
Every
year, this multidisciplinary congress is attended by up to 1000
delegates, among them mostly scientists, engineers and other
specialists in the field. All services associated with the
organization of the congress will be provided by the company
CZECH-IN.
The
European Society of Biomechanics was founded at a meeting of 20
scientists from 11 countries in Brussels in 1976. Now it is the
largest biomechanical company in Europe with more than 750 members.
Its aim is to promote the research, disseminate knowledge and
encourage progress in biomechanics.
