Dear Colleagues and Friends,
I have great pleasure in inviting you to participate to ENC 2005 in Versailles, the latest - but by no means the last - in a series of ENC events. This conference will be devoted to the scientific and technical aspects of nuclear energy that support the most advanced industrial applications, in what really appears to be the dawn of a new nuclear era.
ENC is “the” European nuclear event not to be missed. Although it prides itself in being European, it is not limited to any geographical or political area: energy is really a planetary topic, and I am sure this conference will attract experts from all over the world.
There is no need to emphasize the attractiveness of the venue: Versailles speaks for itself. Being genuinely convinced that nuclear power and renewables share the same ambition, namely to supply the Earth with ample energy without endangering its climate, I find it very fitting that this nuclear Congress be held under the aegis of the “Sun King” Louis the XIV! And, indeed, the Palais des Congrès is just a few meters away from the Versailles Palace. It is 20 to 30 minutes away from Paris by rail. I am sure many of you will take the time to visit Paris, enjoy its monuments and get a taste of French cuisine.
Moving from French to International “cuisine”, our Programme Committee has cooked for you a very comprehensive and tasty menu, which addresses all the current nuclear issues and provide much food for thought…
Take part in ENC 2005: your presence and your contribution will make it a memorable event for the World Nuclear Community.
