I’m trusting everyone who attended the symposium made it back home safe and sound. I’m a bit frazzled around the edges and enjoying a few days off to recharge. All in all it was a very successful symposium. We had some amazing demos and papers. Sadly the posters got double booked with the papers so they didn’t get the time they deserved. I’ve made a note of this for the planning committee for next year. Apologies to all poster presenters for not getting the air time you deserved. Know that Klaus Paris took the posters he had permission to have for permanent display at SCC.
The Art Auction was very successful raising just over $10,000. (Thank you Kathrine Cheetham and team) These funds helped to cover the financial. shortfall of the symposium.
There will be a survey sent out in the next few days to all members regardless of whether you attended the symposium or not. Please fill it out. It’s what the BOD and Symposium planning committee uses for future planning. As always you are welcome to reach out to me directly via email.
