4th European Conference on Flood Risk Management

As sponsors and exhibitors to previous FLOODrisk conferences, in Oxford, Rotterdam and Lyon, we are contacting you to invite you to once again support the 2020 edition of the conference that will take place virtually from 22nd to 24th June 2021.

FLOODrisk2020 will focus on science and practice for an uncertain future. The conference will relate to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) recently adopted by the UN (2016) and to the Sendai agreement on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and, habitually for all FLOODrisk conferences, we are committed to the EU-Directive on Flood Risk Assessment and Management.

But above all this edition of the conference is committed to attract, coach and listen to the next generation of scientists and practitioners who will future-proof our research methods and help to improve our flood risk management practice in order to better cope with deep uncertainty.

 We are looking specifically for support from the following organisations:

• providers of new technologies for monitoring and exploiting big and real-time data 
• developers of new methods for risk analysis and decision support
• specialists of practical guidance for building resilience or gradual adaptation into the future
• experts in the management of transition of flood risk management policies

As the conference takes place virtually, we are expecting visitors from even more varied countries (30 different countries in the past).

There are number of packages available to support the conference (see https://floodrisk2020.net/how-to-become-a-sponsor-or-exhibitor/) or we are happy to discuss a specific idea that you may have to help us make this conference a success. 

You can view the virtual exhibition hall already in motion right now on https://hub.floodrisk2020.net/exhibition/.

You will see from this page, that we have programmed video presentations from our sponsors and exhibitors during the live opening plenary session and during each of the lunch breaks. This would be a great opportunity for you to present your work to FLOODrisk2020 delegates.
