Venues
The conference will be hosted in three main venues.
Cité Internationale des Congrès Nantes Métropole
Located next to the railway station, the "Cité des Congrès" boasts great premises and pleasant facilities.
Keynotes will take place in a 800 seat auditorium, while parallel sessions will be run in highly equipped conference rooms. Lunches and coffee breaks will be offered at the venue, and a 3-star hotel is integrated within the same building.
The European Way(s) of Life 2006 exhibition takes place at "Le lieu unique", which is only a five minutes walk away from the "Cité des Congrès".
L’École de Design Nantes Atlantique
Managed by the Chambre of Commerce of Nantes, L’Ecole de Design Nantes Atlantique is located in the northern part of Nantes, on a technological campus near the Erdre River.
More than 450 students in Industrial and Interaction Design are hosted in nearly 4 000 m2 of convenient built environment. A brand new extension to the building has opened on September 2005, and will officially be inaugurated during ETHICS2006 conference.
Abbey of Fontevraud
Located in the Loire valley, The Abbey of Fontevraud is part of the UNESCO World Heritage.
Beyond centuries of a colourful history, the place is nowadays a center for living arts, classical music, arts and design. The Western Cultural Center (“CCO”) is therefore pleased to welcome the Cumulus members for their General Assembly and farewell dinner and to offer a rich cultural programme.
