Congress venue will be the University of Graz, the second oldest university in Austria. Founded in 1585, it is now one of the largest universities in Austria with about 32,000 students and 4,100 employees. Nine Nobel laureates, e.g. Ludwig Boltzman and Roland Scholl, have taught and researched here.

The congress will be held at the Auditorium (AULA) located in the Main Building, Universitätsplatz 3, which was erected in 1895 by the Viennese architect Karl Stattler. The Auditorium has a capacity of up to 600 guests and is offering a historic and elegant atmosphere.
