We have selected themes of great topical interest and have enlisted esteemed speakers worldwide, of which we are very appreciative. All webinars will be in European CET time.
There will typically be three speakers with a moderator, followed by a Q and A session, although this may vary slightly based on the theme. Each session will last a maximum of 1.30 hours. We are all very excited to welcome you to our interactive and stimulating webinar series.
Participation is free for EDS members and € 35 for non-members. Join EDS for only EUR 100 (EUR 35 students/retirees) and enjoy free webinar participation and other membership benefits. Click here for EDS membership subscriptions. Seats are limited, so please sign up as fast as possible.
