We will have a five-day format that incorporates a hybrid approach with a robust attendance experience for both in-person and remote attendees. Additionally, it is a priority for us to continue improving the experience for poster presenters, both in-person and remote.
The conference will host the oral and poster sessions, as well as the public lecture, in the Exhibition Hall [2]. A banquet will be held at the Georgia Tech Hotel & Conference Center [3], and a pre-conference reception will take place at the Student Success Center [4].
Hotels: There are several hotels conveniently located near the Georgia Tech campus, including the Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center [5] and the Hampton Inn Atlanta-Georgia Tech-Downtown [6]. Both are within walking distance of the Exhibition Hall, where the meeting will be held. The Georgia Tech Trolley [7]—a complimentary shuttle service operated by the Institute—provides regular transportation between Georgia Tech hotel (near the Tech Square station) and the Exhibition Hall. For real-time shuttle tracking and more information, please visit the Georgia Tech Bus Tracker [8].
Here's the link [9] to the nearby hotels. For more information about the venue and parking, please refer to the details here [10].
