The hotels are located \u00b15km from the conference venue. Everyday shuttle bus services will be provided to all delegates at the scheduled moment to bring delegates around according to the conference and social programme. Car-pooling will be arranged and stimulated too during the conference among the delegates. However, should the delegates choose other hotels to stay, local transport will not be provided by the host. Buses, trains and taxis are of course available at your service.[\/cs_headings][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1728044447392{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=&#8221;2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1660153597664{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221;][cs_button text_align=&#8221;text-center&#8221; btn_style=&#8221;a-btn-2&#8243; button=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Feurochrie.org%2F2025%2Fspeakers%2Fmark-van-vugt%2F|title:NEXT%3A%20Prof.%20Dr.%20Mark%20van%20Vugt%20%E2%86%92&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1728044072611{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1657875195421{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;background-color: #1e73be !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1728042535112{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 21px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday 6 November, 2024 @ TBC<br \/>\nAl Samriyah Autograph Collection<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1728044079481{margin-top: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1660151033505{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][gmap-embed id=&#8221;9441&#8243;][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1728126806168{margin-top: 120px !important;margin-right: 40px !important;margin-bottom: -100px !important;margin-left: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;keynote&#8221;][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;806&#8243; img_size=&#8221;&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_circle_2&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; el_id=&#8221;keynoteinfo&#8221;][vc_column][cs_banner style=&#8221;creative&#8221; btn_style=&#8221;a-btn-6&#8243; socials=&#8221;%5B%7B%22icon%22%3A%22fab%20fa-500px%22%7D%5D&#8221; title=&#8221;Keynote Speaker Marco van der Werf&#8221; bg_image=&#8221;807&#8243; button=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Feurochrie.org%2F2025%2Fspeakers%2F|title:%E2%86%90%20Back%20to%20Keynote%20Speakers&#8221; text=&#8221;Founder of Bit&#8221; location=&#8221;x&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1728500847642{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #515151 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1762816528441{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":693,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-804","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/804","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=804"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/804\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":976,"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/804\/revisions\/976"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eurochrie.org\/2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
