Industry presentations
During the IERASG symposium, all participants will be able to learn about the latest developments from our industry partners and sponsors. Our industry sponsors will have a room set up to display their products and demo their systems. We will provide a special concept to ensure an intensive exchange with the participants about new developments in our field:
- special manufacturer sessions with oral presentations
- practical demonstrations during coffee- and lunchbreaks
- networking between industry, experts, young researchers and students.
The oral presentations will focus on new methods and developments in recording, processing, and analyzing auditory system responses.
Information for industry partners and sponsors
The concept of special live manufacturer sessions and practical demonstrations allows our partners and sponsors to participate in all scientific sessions and social events and to interact and network intensively with all conference participants.
