The 12th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation was held last week in the ExCeL Centre in London, UK.
The conference was the biggest ever with over 1500 delegates and over 40 exhibitors. As always the conference was a mix of invited talks, poster sessions, exhibition and social events, all of which contributed to a very successful event!
I got the chance to sit in on some of the talks and look at some of the posters – there is lots of interesting research happening in the areas of antennas and propagation at the moment.
The IET was in attendance with the exhibition stand – the stand was busy every day and I loved talking to so many of the delegates throughout the week. We had lots of fun give-aways – as always the sweets and mints were a hit (ran out on the first full day!) as were the travel mugs and pens – a must for every conference goer!
The exhibition kicked off on Monday evening with the welcome reception. The mood was set by a string quartet, who played some great British hits including Queen and The Beatles!
There was another music interlude at the conference dinner, held at the National Maritime Museum, with a jazz trio providing the accompaniment to dinner.
With so much happening, there is no way one person could sum up the entirety of EuCAP - If you attended this year, please share your highlights in the comments below!
Next year’s event will be in Krakow, Poland – the call for papers will be open soon, so keep an eye out for the website launching soon!
