Invitation to Companies

Commercial lectures following thematic can be a means of presentation
of a company's achievements.

We also organize accompanying exhibition, the goal of which is for
companies to demonstrate their devices and to present their
achievements. Exhibitors may present their products by means of
posters. The exhibition will be opened during the Conference.

Co-sponsorship will put the company to the co-sponsor list in the
program, proceedings and other printed material of the Conference.
The contribution also covers a one-page advertisement of the company
printed in the proceedings.

Applications for commercial lectures, exhibitions and co-sponsorship
should be forwarded to the address of the KoREMA Secretariat by May
5, 2001. Conditions of appearance are available at the KoREMA
Secretariat. Confirmations of appearance will be sent by May 15.



VENUE

Dubrovnik is situated on the Adriatic coast in the southernmost part
of the Republic of Croatia. Dubrovnik was founded in the 7th century.
In the 12th and 13th centuries the small Dubrovnik state built strong
city walls, more or less where they stand today to defend and guard
its independence. King Richard the Lionhearted found shelter against
a storm not far from Dubrovnik on his return from the Crusades in
1192. Fulfilling a vow, he gave the city a sum of money to start
building the Dubrovnik Cathedral. The Codified Statute was adopted in
1272. Between 1580 and 1600 Dubrovnik?s merchant navy had more ships
than ever. It included around 200 ships and about 5000 sailors who
were the very embodiment of the trading spirit. About the same time,
the Dubrovnik Republic had a well developed network of consulates and
consular offices in more than 80 cities and ports. The beginning of
the 19th century brought Dubrovnik the last days of its century-long
freedom. In 1806 the city gates were opened to Napoleon?s soldiers
and the small free state disappeared forever. Dubrovnik has preserved
the beauty of a medieval town. Its outstanding cultural and
historical monuments have earned it a place on UNESCO?s World
Heritage List.

Dubrovnik has over 250 sunny days a year. The average annual
temperature is 17° C, the average winter temperature 10° C and av.
summer temperature is 26° C. Dubrovnik can be reached by plane, bus,
ship, or ferry.
