Dress code
The attire for the conference is business casual. Session rooms can be cold, so dress in layers. Given the amount of walking you will do, wear comfortable shoes.
Gothenburg weather in October is chilly. Average temperatures range from 43-53°F (6°-12°C). Check the forecast and plan accordingly.
What to bring:
- Business Cards – With ample time to network, have plenty of cards to distribute.
- Day bag – Between early sessions and evening poster receptions, meeting days are long. Bring a backpack or briefcase to carry needed items, as there aren’t many opportunities to return to your hotel room.
- Reusable water bottle and coffee mug; go green!
- Notebook and pen – Make sure to have these on hand at all times.
