The organizing committee of ENZITEC decided to postpone the Congress to provide a safe environment for attendees and the people involved in the organization.

Given the worldwide Coronavirus outbreak, that was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation, and the travel restrictions imposed on countries, ENZITEC will be rescheduled. By doing so we will be able to ensure a secure environment for everyone. 

The Organizing Committee is working on a new format. Please check ENZITEC website regularly to stay up to date.
