Video by Anton Mahr

Our “Covid compatible” Conference was a success!

.

From 23rd to 25th September, we discussed Play Areas and good practice concerning Impact Attenuating Surfacing (IAS) from a multidisciplinary perspective.

More than 80 participants attended, both in person and online, mostly from Portugal, but also from Australia, Canada, France, Spain, UK and Serbia. We had live streaming on ZOOM (in Portuguese) and Youtube (in English).

A big thank you to all those that stood up with us along this challenging long process, not giving up till the end, despite the pandemic with all its uncertainties and unexpected last minute changes:

  • Thank you to all the speakers, sponsors and partners as well as to all participants that trusted our commitment to delivering quality information and added value to professionals in the field.
  •  And thank you to our amazing technical team that made it all happen!

Recordings are available for participants. If you would like to get access to them and you did not register, please get in touch with us.
