Venue 

The AFPM 2019 will take place in Aalto University in Espoo Finland. More precisely the location for the conference is Dipoli, the main building of Aalto University.

Where:

Otakaari 24, 01250 Espoo

The venue is located at Aalto University campus that can be reached by metro from Helsinki city center (10-15min).

Getting to Espoo Finland

Helsinki Airport has connections with various European major airports. From the airport you can get to Helsinki city center with both train and bus. More information can be found on the airport's website. You can reach the conference venue at Aalto University campus by metro from Helsinki city center (10-15min). 

Accomodation

We advice you to stay in a hotel in Helsinki city centre as you can reach the campus by metro. Because June is high season for travelling and conferences we advice you to book your accomodation well in time before the conference.

There is also one hotel (Radisson Blu Hotel Espoo) at Aalto University campus for those who want to be close to the venue.
