Conference Highlights

The 2012 Annual EDEN Conference in Porto was again a great success with 350 delegates with over 150 presentations from all over the world. The event was rich both in content and in collaboration opportunities and was highly interactive not only face-to-face, but also on the web. The professional community followed the webcasts of the keynote sessions, the referenced links by the keynotes at the Conference blog (over 1300 visitors in 3 days) and shared experiences via Twitter (over 1400 tweets on the conference topic), Facebook (with 473 members of the Group), and Linkedin. A Scoop.it rolling issue collected the links, presentations, shared content of the conference with cca 1000 visitors online.
We thank the keynotes, the speakers and all delegates for their valuable inputs and contribution to the achievements and nice atmosphere of the conference.  See further information on downloadable keynote presentations, the Best Paper Award and the EDEN Fellow Awards below.
