Accreditation provides access to the Congress programme from 26-28 May 2026. There is no registration fee for accredited participants, but a catering fee of €100 will be applied upon registration which covers lunches, coffee/tea and snacks during all three days. While some receptions are included in press registration, an additional fee of €20 is charged for participation in the official opening reception on 26 May.
