The International Convention Center in Jerusalem is Israel’s largest convention center – a superb venue to host our 2021 Symposium, sponsors' expo, plenary sessions and poster session events. The broadcasting facility is conveniently accessed from all directions – via both highways and public transportation. Alas, we will not be able to meet there, in-person, for ICRS2021. Stay healthy. See you in June!
The ICC complex has more than 12,000 sq. m. of exhibition and presentation space – distributed amongst 10 different sections – with up to 800 parking places.
The Jerusalem ICC's Teddy Hall – for all oral presentations, Oren Hall – for live Expos, and Pincus Hall – for all of epic poster sessions – are fully equipped and state-of-the-art for the broadcast of a fully virtual ICRS2021. See you there!
The virtual broadcast of ICRS2021 will enjoy the ICC's entire compliment of cutting-edge multimedia technology. Audiovisual, environmental and data-delivery tech at the ICC is excellent. Access and technology for the disabled will be made available – please contact us with your individual needs. All registered ICRS delegates will enjoy access to our streaming HD virtual Symposium on the Cannabinoids.
