The 14th Symposium & Exhibition

Symposium papers

In 2009 a total of 23 papers were presented to over 200 delegates. The symposium programme is given below and each paper is available to download through this website provided you are logged in with a registered account - if you do not have an account you will be asked to create one (there is no registration fee we simply ask for a few details) when you try and download a paper.

This year we also filmed the presentations and have made footage of the competition winners available (links included below) - please note that you will not be able to view the footage through this website unless your browser has Flash installed.

The full list of exhibitors is given here. If you are interested in exhibiting then we are always keen to encourage new participants. Similarly, if you are interested in presenting a paper at the Symposium, please let us know. You will receive additional discount on the Symposium costs and we will be happy to give you as much (or as little) guidance as you need in terms of format and pitching your content at the right level.
