- What is this Networking Event?
The networking event is the perfect opportunity to get to know the conference attendees in a relaxed setting after a long and intensive day of presentations, workshops and information. This event is at an authentic and traditional kind of Austrian restaurant (called “Heuriger”). This is your chance to talk to everyone, have a glass of wine, eat delicious traditional meals (e.g. schnitzel, pork roast, sauerkraut, …) and recharge for the next day. Do not miss it, this is generally considered one of the highlights! Here is an impression from a past conference:
Only participants of the dHealth conference can attend this event for an extra charge of €77.00. This fee includes buffet and drinks (wine, juices and water).
Please note: You have to additionally register for this networking event. This is not included in the normal registration fee and not done automatically when registering for the conference.
- How do I get to the Networking Event and how do I get back to the accomodation afterwards?
dHealth offers a free shuttle service from the conference venue to the restaurant. Please follow the instructions at the conference to find your way to the bus. You can choose to go by public transport, but the distance is too far to walk by foot.
The trip home to the accomodation after the dinner is done individually. Most of public transport still operates at this time and a taxi stand is close by.
