WELCOME LETTER

Dear friends,

The 23rd ESB Congress will take place at the Higher Technical School of Engineering of the University of Seville, from the 2nd to the 5th of July 2017, organized by the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB). This will be the first ESB Congress to be held in Spain.

The Congress will take place in Seville, which is one of the largest cities in Spain and an attractive tourist destination. It is known worldwide for its history, cultural offer (flamenco, bull fighting, etc.), gastronomy and monuments. The city played a key role in the discovery of America, a time when it could be considered the capital of the World. An example may serve to illustrate the historical significance of Seville: it is, by far, the city which has inspired more musical pieces (128, the second city having less than 100 pieces). The action of well-known operas like Carmen, Don Giovanni, Il Barbiere di Siviglia, Le Nozze di Figaro, Fidelio, La Favorite, La Forza del Destino, among others, is located in Seville.

The venue of the Congress will be the Higher Technical School of Engineering with a fantastic academic atmosphere and within walking distance from the city center. This former pavilion of the Universal Expo Seville 1992 was refurbished after that exhibition to house a School of Engineering and has fantastic facilities for the organization of this type of events.

We would like to invite you to support this unique event in 2017. We look forward to welcoming you at the ESB2017 Congress!

Yours sincerely,

Javier Martínez Reina (Chairman)

THE CITY: SEVILLE

Seville is a prominent business and service center in the South of Spain, which invite visitors to discover endless attractions. Situated on the banks of the Guadalquivir River, Seville has a rich Moorish heritage, and used to be a prosperous port that carried out trade with the Americas. Streets and squares in the historic quarter of the capital of Andalusia are lively and busy. They treasure many constructions that have the World Heritage designation, and many districts are full of traditional culture, like Triana and La Macarena. Museums and Art centers, theme parks, cinemas, theatres and clubs are some of the many leisure options that a great city like Seville holds. Without forgetting, of course, the numerous terraces, inns and bars where visitors can practice one of the most deeply-rooted and tasty traditions in the city: "Going out for tapas"
