Conference venue
For the first time in ECFC history we will hold our plenary sessions, lunch and coffee breaks at the newly opened Edinburgh Futures Institute with the support of the Centre for Investing Innovation.
The welcome reception venue and the conference dinner venue will be confirmed soon.
Accommodation
Edinburgh is a very popular tourist destination and hotel capacity is limited over the summer months. Conference delegates are therefore encouraged to book early to secure a reservation at their preferred accommodation provider.
The University offers a broad variety of accommodation through the University of Edinburgh Hospitality and Events Collection.
