Various Networking Events will be organised by FENS, the Host Society Committee and other third-parties to confer a lively atmosphere to the Forum.

A networking event is an evening event that is included as part of the FENS Forum scientific programme. It is happening within the congress center or outside of the congress center.

Organisations, societies, institutions, patient groups, project groups, companies, and other stakeholders are invited to organise their networking events during the FENS Forum.

The structure and the programme are created by the organiser and can include a frontal session, a panel discussion or other session formats. The networking event can include a cocktail reception (the extra cost will be covered by the organiser).

Call for Networking Events Proposals

Submission for networking event proposals will remain open until 20 April 2022.
