Here we are in Q1 2019. It only seems like yesterday that we were in Savannah for TS22. We are now looking forward to TS23 in September in Tarragona.

Einar Didriksen and I are busy working on the programme, building interesting topics and working with the Moderators to build quality panels.

We have several themes that have been determined already which we believe to be especially relevant today.

We have early bird discount rates available, group discounts, plus the exclusive IFPTA Member fee - so get those registrations in soon.
