Information about the Conference

From 10 – 14 August 2013, the IRSCL conference will take place in Maastricht, The Netherlands. Maastricht is widely known as a city of history, culture, lokal folklore and education.

The IRSCL will use the facilities of the School of Business and Economics (SBE).

The School is located at Tongersestraat 53 in an “old” Jesuit monastery, built in 1923, very close to the famous “Vrijthof” in the inner city of Maastricht. In this building a Jesuit library - inherited by the University from the Jesuits - was incorporated. The University has used the building since 1976.

Maastricht has a wide variety of hotels which are all on walking distance of the conference venue. Mid 2012 more information will follow about how to reserve your hotel.
